Dunk Island- Overview
Dunk Island is arguably Australia's most beautiful tropical rainforest island.
Located between Cairns and Cardwell just off shore from the wonderful Mission Beach. This island of peace
and plenty offers an amazing variety of activities, facilities and experiences, for individual travellers,
couples wanting to getaway from the rat race or Families looking for an unforgettable holiday experience.
Dunk Island was known to the first inhabitants as 'Coonanglebah' - the Island of
Peace and Plenty. Today, Dunk Island continues to be one of Australia's most desirable tropical island resorts.
With an enormous variety of activities to choose from, it's hard deciding what
to do next. You could start the day with a rainforest walk and take in the spectacular views from the summit
of Mt Kootaloo. After breakfast, explore one of the National Park walking trails through the rainforest and
later perhaps a snorkel at Muggy Muggy Beach. Enjoy a sumptuous lunch and then spend the afternoon soaking
up the sun, playing tennis or enjoying a wide variety of water sports
And that's just one day on Dunk Island. You've still got to fit in a trip to the
Great Barrier Reef, a visit to the Artists' Colony, horse riding on the beach, and some fishing! But in between
this frenzy of fun you'll still find time to relax and unwind.
Dunk has a variety of restaurants and eateries designed to match your mood. The
Beachcomber Restaurant more than caters for all those a la carte cravings. Then there's EJ's on the Deck,
an island favourite with a savvy sidewalk cafe style. And BB's on the Beach is great for a relaxing bite to
eat. With a postcard view across the palm-fringed beach to distant islands, the Plantation Bar and Lounge
is perfect for a quiet drink together.
For the family, Dunk is as good as it gets. The Kids Club has its own meal times
and activities so that mum and dad can enjoy being a couple again. Imagine the freedom and romance of a sunset
cruise, knowing that the kids are in safe hands and having a ball.

Dunk Island - Resort Leisure Facilities
Spa of Peace & Plenty, Dunk Island
Set amongst lush tropical gardens, the Spa of Peace & Plenty has been designed
with pampering and total indulgence in mind - a sanctuary where guests exchange stressed states for tranquillity
and embrace treatments that renew energies or evoke delicious relaxation.
Dunk Island Spa have chosen to use two premium spa ranges: Sodashi, an all-Australian
botanical range and Elemis, providing holistic spa therapies enhanced with exotic aromatherapy products.
Advanced bookings are recommended prior to check-in. The Spa environment lends
itself only to those 16 years of age and over.
Dunk Island 18 Hole Golf Course
Golfers are able to swing their way around a challenging and scenic 18-hole resort
course - the only 18 hole island golf course in Australia.
The course uses the Island's natural water features and the surrounding rainforest
to great effect. Whilst the lush, international-standard greens have been cultivated using grass imported
from Laguna Quays, the fairways and tees use local grasses native to the Island, the specially selected varieties
allowing for excellent cover and negating the need for herbicides or pesticides.
Dunk Island - Kids Club
Kids Club caters for children aged 3 to 12 years all year round. Under the watchful
eye of Dunk's professional staff, the kids enjoy a range of activities during morning and evening sessions.
They can join a treasure hunt, nature arts and crafts, take a rainforest discovery
walk, try turtle spotting, visit Dunk's own farm and the list goes on. In the evening, there's disco parties,
stargazing, night walks, movies, night games and more. Kids Club even caters for the kids at dinner time.
In fact, the kids will be having so much fun, parents can simply disappear! Now that's cool.
