Blue Lagoon Campground – Moreton Island National Park (CG)

Blue Lagoon campground offers beach style camping with medium to large sites, many with shade. All sites are marked with totems. Campground is within easy access to ocean surf beach and within walking distance to Blue Lagoon. The campground can be reached by 4WD and on foot by experienced bushwalkers only. Parking is available next to camp sites. It is accessible for camper trailers.
Number of sites: a maximum of 25 sites are available, all marked with totems. Seasonal closures mean that not all sites will be full all year round.
Camp sites are suitable for: tent camping and camper trailers.
Camp site surface: sand.

SITE ACCESS
The camp site is on the eastern side of island, between Middle Road and Cape Moreton.
If towing a trailer it is recommended to use Bulwer-Blue Lagoon Road instead of Middle Road as this track is one-way and narrow. The soft sand of Middle Road makes it easy for heavy vehicles to get bogged, which can block the track for several hours.
Moreton Island is 40 km offshore from Brisbane. The island can be reached by ferry, barge or boat. Barges and ferries for vehicles and passengers run daily. If you are not taking a vehicle, choose your island destination point and book the ferry or barge from the corresponding departure point.
Private boat access
Moreton Island is in exposed waters. Large seas can be experienced between Moreton Island and the mainland. Consider your experience and the suitability of your vessel, and take into account currents and predicted weather and sea conditions when planning your trip. No public moorings are available at Moreton Island.
4WD access
4WD (4WD) vehicles are essential for driving on the island. 4WD vehicles with high clearance and low range function are strongly recommended. All-wheel drive vehicles without true 4WD function and vehicles with low clearance will have difficulty along inland tracks and in soft sand, and are therefore not suitable on Moreton Island.

Please note: GPS Coordinates are approximate and provided in most cases to get you to the entrance. Once inside the park there should be signs to the actual camp grounds. Failing this please check with National Parks for further directions.
