Magnetic Island Accommodation

Magnetic Island is just offshore from the city of Townsville. This 52 square km mountainous island in Cleveland Bay has effectively become a suburb of Townsville with permanant residents. Magnetic Island is accessible from Townsville to Nelly Bay by ferry.

Magnetic Island has long become established as a holiday destination with many hotels and several resorts in operation to cater for all levels of service.

Magnetic Island is a haven for wildlife. 54% of the island is Magnetic Island National Park, which is mostly located on the steep hilly interior and rugged north-western side. The highest point on the island is Mount Cook.
