Middle Island
or
Halfway Island

lage), you can also camp (per person/family $5.85/21.80) on several national park islands,
including
Humpy Island
,
Middle Island
,
North Keppel Island
and
Miall Island
. Take your own supplies
and water. For information and permits contact the

or
Rosslyn Bay Marine Parks

.
The otherwise glamorous
Pumpkin Island
was temporarily renamed
XXXX Island
, after being
leased until 2015 by the Queensland brewing giant; at the time of research unless you have
any luck with a 'specially marked' box of beer, you are not allowed to visit.
From Rosslyn Bay,
Funtastic Cruises
( 0438 909 502;
