Visit Queensland’s first lighthouse at Cape Moreton, built in 1857 from island sandstone. Climb the southern hemisphere’s tallest vegetated sand dune, Mount Tempest, and be rewarded with panoramic views out over the bay. Wander through the ruins of Rous Battery and imagine life as a solider living among the dunes.

Cool off in Blue Lagoon, a freshwater oasis set amid flowering heathland, perfect for swimming, kayaking and paddle boarding. Come for the day or take your time on an extended camping adventure.

Come on foot, by ferry, boat or four wheel drive and set yourself up in one of the camping areas along the coastal fringes of the island. With so many sites on offer, there's bound to be one that suits you.
