Wilson Island is a tiny coral cay located just 40 minutes from Heron Island. A divine sweep of castor sugar sands that is home to turtles and birds. Its pristine waters are host to an unimaginable variety of marine life, including colourful coral and fish, with some of the best snorkelling in the Great Barrier Reef, just off the beach.

The island allows a maximum of just 12 guests at any any time. Offering designer-inspired tented accommodation, six permanent tent sites combine simplicity of design with comfort.

Guests can also relax at The Longhouse, a spacious, open-sided central complex with dining and lounge facilities, where you can unwind over a drink at the end of the day.

The Wilson Island experience - to live and enjoy life as a beachcomber. Days can be filled snorkelling and exploring the island, in-season watching turtles and birds nesting and the birth of hatchlings, or simply lazing in a hammock and enjoying the breathtaking views.
