Fringed by
17 separate white sandy beaches encircling its 28 km shoreline
like a pearl shell necklace. Great Keppel Island offers a unique
holiday destination.
Almost astride the Tropic of Capricorn,
Great Keppel enjoys a sub-tropical climate and near constant
sea breezes which combined with the turquoise crystal of its
waters creates a holiday escape unique to the region.
Laced with picturesque walking
trails, the island lists 10 different tracks ranging from a
15 minute beach walk to a hike to the lighthouse at the island's
tip.
A sanctuary
to extensive native flora and fauna including more than 100
species of bird life including kookaburras, rainbow lorikeets,
drongos and a diverse range of seabirds and with strong Aboriginal
heritage links, Great Keppel is more than a place to lie in
the sun. |
