South Stradbroke Island

Brisbane, QLD 4216

At the northern end of the Broadwater at the Gold Coast, South "Straddie" is an elongated island 21 kilometers long and only 2.5 kilometers at its widest point. Once a fishing and oyster growing area, and used by boating families for picnics and barbecues, now the Couran Cove Resort, on the west coast, allows for visitors to stay in comfort. Eucalypts, banksia forest and cabbage tree palms are common, and the Resort has enhanced the paperbark tree areas by planting some fragrant melaleucas, and also boasts a magnificent Livistona rainforest lagoon.
