Moreton Island is a natural playground that’s perfect for action and distraction,
When Mother Nature decided that the people of Sydney would get beaches while Brisbanites would have to make do with messy mangrove swamps, she wasn’t being entirely mean. As a consolation, she gifted Moreton Island to the latter – all they had to do was cross 40km of ocean to get to it.
That’s easily done nowadays, and Brisbane seems to be having the last laugh, for the island has become a big drawcard for Australian and overseas visitors, and P&O Cruises has even started doing four-night escapes from Sydney to Moreton Island and back so that Sydneysiders can have what Brisbanites are having. How the picnic tables have turned!
