Wilson Island Resort – This tiny coral cay is both part of the Great Barrier Reef and surrounded by pristine reef and beach environments including rare turtle and bird breeding grounds. Those that are drawn to the Wilson Island Experience will see the natural beauty of the island, its seclusion and the freedom from modern-day living as part of its appeal.
Wilson Island is essentially natural – a divine sweep of caster sugar sands that is home to turtles and birds and with pristine waters it plays host to an unimaginable variety of marine life including coral and fish.
THE LONGHOUSE
The Longhouse is the central dining and relaxation area on the island, a large comfortable banquette seating area for relaxing and socialising with an open kitchen.
