Description

A private place in the Great Barrier Reef, untainted, untouched and understated with luxurious safari style tent accommodation, only six on the entire island, enough for just twelve guests at any one time.

Wilson Island is a pure island experience; a place to find your real self, for getting your feet back on the ground. For being Shipwrecked, in style. A private island, shared with a privileged few, your own Chef and Bartender, and some of the world's most elusive creatures - Wilson Island is the perfect romantic holiday retreat on The Great Barrier Reef.

... more

You'll be distracted, there's no doubt - not by modern day gadgets or stresses, but by the sheer incredulous beauty of the great barrier reef nature itself; by the lanky legs of leafy pandanus trees arching like little rocket stands into lush soil, by the illusive but charming mutton birds nesting at peace just off the pathway, and if you're there at the right time, by the tiny green turtles fresh from their eggs dashing down to the water to start life anew.
