The Keppel Islands
A picture perfect escape..
When you set foot on one the Keppel Islands you will feel as though you have stepped into an island paradise where the 'squeaky-clean' white sand flows between your toes and the ocean is sparkling before your eyes. Whether you're visiting Great Keppel for a lazy Sunday lunch or staying for a couple of weeks, you can't fail to be impressed by the scenery or the range of activities on the island.
With the protection of a fringing reef, the waters surrounding the Keppels are amazingly calm making it perfect for all types of water sports such as snorkeling, sea kayaking, water-skiing and tubing.
Accommodation on Great Keppel Island ranges from tents and cabins at the Great Keppel Island Holiday Village or even a private beach house on the water's edge. The island is approximately 240 hectares in size and is home to 17 pristine white-sand beaches and an interior rich with native flora and fauna, all waiting for you to explore. Take a short beach walk or two hour hike up to the island's lighthouse.
Camping is allowed on the Keppel Bay Islands National Parks of North Keppel Island, Humpy Island, Miall Island, Middle Island, Divided Island & Pelican Island. Visitors must bring their own drinking water and campers require a camping permit. Details and bookings can be made through the National Parks web link above.
Getting Here
Ferries run daily over the the island which makes a day trip another easy choice. |
