Introducing Great Keppel Island

Gorgeous Great Keppel Island boasts 18km of fine white beaches, rivalling any of Queensland’s beautiful Whitsunday isles, and sits just 13km from the mainland. Around 90% of its 14 sq km is natural bushland. There’s a wide range of activities and entertainment to keep you busy, but you can also find patches of overwhelming quiet. Backpackers looking for a cheap, semi-developed, flawlessly beautiful getaway are very happy here.
