North Point Campground – Moreton Island National Park (CG)

North Point campground offers large, grassy, defined sites, many with shade. All sites are marked with totems. Campground is close to surf beach and within walking distance to Honeymoon Bay. The campground can be reached by 4WD only. Four sites are suitable for camper trailers. Although the campground is accessible by 4WD, it is necessary to park a short distance from each camp site. It is not possible to drive onto or beside tent sites.
Number of sites: a maximum of 21 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
Camp site surface: grass.

SITE ACCESS
The camp site is at the northern tip of the island, between Yellow Patch and Cape Moreton.
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.
