Moreton Island Essentials
Moreton Island is the world’s third-largest sand island, characterized by the 285-meter Mount Tempest—the planet's highest coastal sand dune. The island's perimeter features historical landmarks like the 1857 Cape Moreton Lighthouse and the Tangalooma Wrecks, a breakwater formed by 15 scuttled ships. On the western shore, the Tangalooma Island Resort hosts nightly wild dolphin viewings, while the northern tip contains unique geological features including the volcanic Champagne Pools and the secluded Honeymoon Bay.
