Repulse Islands National Park

Repulse Islands National Park extends across 141 hectares of land, featuring two main islands surrounded by the waters of the Coral Sea.

The Queensland government designated this area as a protected national park in 1994, with additional protective measures implemented in 1998.

The islands maintain deep connections to Indigenous communities who established relationships with these lands long before European settlement.

Visitors need to arrange boat transportation from nearby coastal towns to reach the islands, as no direct land access exists.

The national park stands at 27 meters above sea level and functions as part of the extensive Great Barrier Reef World Heritage area.
