Great Sandy National Park Essentials

Explore Great Sandy National Park, encompassing the world’s largest sand island, K'gari, and the coastal dunes of Cooloola. This region features unique geological formations like the multi-colored sand cliffs of The Pinnacles and The Cathedrals, alongside the rusted 1935 hull of the S.S. Maheno. From the historic Sandy Cape Lighthouse at the island’s northern tip to the natural volcanic rock pools of the Champagne Pools, these sites highlight the area's rich maritime history and diverse coastal landscapes.
