Lindeman Islands National Park

The protected area encompasses multiple islands with coral reefs, beaches, and rainforest areas that support numerous plant and animal species through diverse ecosystems.

The Queensland Department of National Parks established this conservation area in December 1998 to safeguard the natural environment of these continental islands.

The Ngaro Aboriginal people named the main island Yara-kimba, referring to the abundant snapper-bream fish populations in the surrounding waters.

Visitors reach the islands through boat services from mainland locations, with facilities including designated walking tracks, camping spots, and anchoring areas.

The national park features various habitats where wallabies roam freely among the vegetation while marine life thrives in the surrounding coral gardens.
