Wilson Island Resort is an exclusive and unique Great Barrier Reef experience for the true eco-adventure seeker who dreams of spending the night on a deserted island.
EXPERIENCE
If you're interested in seeing the Great Barrier Reef, why not get up real close? Like staying-on-the-reef close.
Step out of your aesthetically perfect, steel-framed tent for a breath of fresh sea air, and you're literally standing on a tiny coral atoll. Glancing across your gourmet meal cooked up on a six-burner gas barbecue, and you realize how awesome being marooned can be.
In and among Australia's Great Barrier Reef, this exclusive resort allows only 12 adventurers at a time in its six solar-powered, safari-style tents, but rest assured, you will never be alone. Surrounded by reef and ocean, this is the long established home of rare sea turtles, dozens of indigenous birds, and the varied fish and marine life that feed on the pristine coral. Even a few humpback whales stop by from time to time, heading south with their calves.
Fresh air, fresh food, good friends and make-yourself-at-home style cocktail service. Eat your heart out, real world.
