Just off the mainland between Airlie Beach and Bowen lies Gloucester Islands National Park, a scenic group of inshore continental islands. Gloucester Island, the largest, is home to a colony of endangered Proserpine rock-wallabies. Sandy and coral rubble beaches, rainforest and seclusion are some of this park’s main attractions. The islands and surrounding waters are part of the Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Area and are protected. More remote than other parks in the Whitsundays, these islands offer a quiet retreat. Camp at Bona or East Side Bays (Gloucester Island) or at Armit or Saddleback Islands. Bona Bay (Gloucester Island), the largest campground, has a good anchorage, toilets, picnic tables, and a shelter shed. East Side Bay (Gloucester) is set between two rocky headlands. Armit Island has a toilet and picnic tables. Saddleback is close to the mainland.
