A NEW tourism business is fast becoming known as the region’s hidden treasure and is poised to join the ranks of renowned Whitsunday islands.
Camp Island Lodge is located 50km north of Bowen and offers an exclusive, all-inclusive getaway that promises a unique blend of barefoot luxury and adventure.
Positioned within the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park, Camp Island Lodge features four luxurious seafront villas.
Each villa combines modern comfort with the charm of being just steps from the ocean, providing an intimate and rejuvenating experience.
What sets Camp Island apart is its exclusivity – when you book a stay, the entire island is yours to explore.
“The Whitsundays are famed for their stunning beauty and vibrant marine life, but Camp Island offers something truly unique – the luxury of solitude and a personalised experience,” Camp Island Lodge manager Catherine Ball said.
“We are thrilled to join forces with other local operators to highlight the Whitsundays as a premier destination while offering our guests an escape from the hustle and bustle, with
every comfort and activity included.”
At Camp Island Lodge, guests enjoy a variety of activities and experiences designed to maximise their private island retreat:
- Water Sports: The lodge offers complimentary use of paddle boards, kayaks, and snorkel sets,
allowing guests to dive into the surrounding coral gardens, teeming with marine life, or enjoy the
clear waters at their own pace. - Guided Nature Walks: Explore the island’s lush landscapes and the national park areas with
guided or self-guided walks. Witness wallabies, echidnas, and even the annual whale migration
from the best vantage points on the island. - Fishing Excursions: Take advantage of guided fishing trips to Old Reef and Stanley Reef aboard
the custom-built boat; Major Tom. For those looking for a more relaxed experience, fishing rods are
available to catch coral trout, queenfish, and other local species right from the shore. - Crabbing Adventures: Join guided crabbing trips in local estuaries to catch mud crabs, adding an
authentic touch to your island adventure. - Secluded Beaches: Discover the pristine, untouched beaches and coves of Cape Upstart on
guided excursions. These areas, inaccessible to most and only reachable by boat, offer an
extraordinary experience for our guests. - Relaxation and Leisure: Guests can unwind using the island’s cabanas, sun loungers, and
hammocks. The swimming pool and tennis court are also available with no time restrictions or
additional costs. - Private Chef Service: Enhance your stay with a private chef to prepare breakfast, lunch, dinner,
and snacks, ensuring a culinary experience that matches the island’s natural splendour.
