Moreton Island is loved for its untouched natural beauty and unspoiled atmosphere. Paddling a transparent-bottom kayak over the crystal-clear turquoise waters feels like gliding through a world of tropical fish and coral reefs. Around the island, you’ll find the famous shipwreck site, now home to vibrant coral and marine life — making snorkeling here a truly special experience. On land, thrill-seekers can ride a sandboard down a 200-meter-high sand dune at incredible speed — an exhilarating activity that feels like flying.
