The Neighborhood:
K'gari is the world's largest sand island and an area of remarkable natural beauty. It was listed as a World Heritage Area in 1992 to recognise the island's internationally significant natural features:
-evolving dune, lake, soil and forest systems, the extent and age of which are outstanding examples of ongoing geological and biological processes
-unique landscapes, which are examples of superlative natural occurrences.
Growing on seemingly infertile sands are a great variety of plant communities ranging from coastal heath, mangrove forests and swamps to subtropical rainforest.
The many archaeological remains found on K'gari record thousands of years of culture and tradition, and provide important links to their past for the Butchulla people.
The island is 123km long and covers an area of 166,038ha, so you need to allow plenty of time to explore and appreciate it.
Getting Around:
A 4WD vehicle is required to access the house and the island. You will also need a National Park Vehicle Permit issued by QPWS.
