A true island paradise, Lady Elliot Island Eco Resort is a popular destination for
families and leisure groups keen to explore this rich marine eco-system
located at the southern tip of the Great Barrier Reef. Lady Elliot is a nature retreat, true coral island and a designated marine park, home to green and loggerhead turtles and in season, thousands of sea birds.
The moment you step onto the Lady Elliot Island, you know you have arrived somewhere
special. Formed over 3000 years this beautiful coral cay is home to 57
species of birds, nesting sea turtles and a stunning underwater world of
coral formations and diverse marine life. On Lady Elliot Island, you set
the pace. You can bury your nose in a good book on a stretch of deserted
beach, go diving with one of our qualified dive instructors, or explore the
island and visit the main landmark, the Lady Elliot Island Lighthouse, one
of the first built in Australia using a timber framed substructure and cast
iron external cladding.
