Rugged and isolated, Curtis Island’s windswept coastline, long beaches and sweeping sand dunes provide solitude for the adventurous camper.
Camping permits are required and fees apply. Obtain your permit before leaving the mainland. Attach your camping tag to your tent in a visible position after setting up camp.
Our precious Great Barrier Reef World Heritage islands are among the most pest-free islands in the world. They need your help to stay this way. Please Be pest-free! before your visit.
