Coochiemudlo Island Nature Walk

Coochiemudlo Island Nature Walk

Date: Saturday, 10th May
Meet-up Time: 10:15 AM (for a 10:30 AM sharp ferry)
Where: Victoria Point Jetty (Masters Avenue, Victoria Point)

Get ready for a fantastic day exploring the stunning Coochiemudlo Island! We'll hop on the ferry (just 50 cents each way—yes, really!) and set off on a scenic walk around the island.

Ferry Details: The Amity Trader passenger ferry won’t wait, so be sure to allow plenty of time for parking and walking down to the terminal. They accept both card and cash.

The Walk:
Once we arrive, we’ll pass the playground and toilets before making our way around the island, following the shoreline or taking the best route depending on the tides. Along the way, we’ll see beautiful beaches, spot shorebirds, admire fascinating rock formations, and walk through peaceful mangroves. If the tides work in our favour, we’ll even get to check out the historic Moreton Jetty.

Difficulty Level: Easy! It’s a 5km mostly flat walk with a mix of pathways and off-track sections. Make sure to wear comfortable, sturdy shoes such as runners or hiking shoes.

What to Bring:

Sunhat, sunglasses, and sunscreen

Bug spray

Plenty of water and a snack to eat along the way

After the Walk:
Our adventure wraps up back at the Coochiemudlo Island Jetty. From there, you can either catch the next ferry back or stay a little longer and relax at one of the local spots: Curlew Café or Beach Bar & Grill, both located near the finish point. Note: We don’t have a group booking, so if you’d like to stay for a bite, you may want to book ahead.

Important:
This is a not-for-profit, volunteer-run event, so everyone is responsible for their own safety. Please be respectful of island residents—this is their home, so let’s keep the peace and stay off private property.
