Keswick Island boasts virgin tropical
forest, thriving coral reef, and deep ocean passage to migrating
whales and turtles. Visit at the right time, and you might be lucky
enough to spot these mighty travellers. Hike year-round and
wonder at 1200 year-old Cycads, 300 year old grass trees, vocal
bird colonies, thriving native animals, and rich forest boroughs.
You'll find walking tracks to three of
the island’s sheltered picnic beaches: Connie Bay, Arthur Bay and
Basil Bay. Each walk offers its own riches. The Arthur Bay track
winds through dense tropical vegetation and ancient trees. Connie
Bay’s hilly climb extends to a spectacular view from North Coral
Passage, and then winds through a stunning Melaleuca cluster.
Basil Bay offers sweeping, golden sands, and shaded areas that
make the ideal place for relaxing. If you're fit, we can guide
you up the 'big hill' for some stunning panoramic photos, or you can try out the
recent addition of a new walking trail to Horseshoe Bay. The Great Barrier Reef coral
surrounding the island provides magnificent snorkelling and
kayaking in all three bays.
