Stradbroke Island in December 2009

In December 2009 we spent the day on Stradbroke Island. It is very unspoilt and quite beautiful. We had perfect weather and spent most of the day on the beaches and exploring the island. We took our car on the ferry and drove on just about every road on the island. It is so close to Brisbane – probably takes 1-2 hours to get there from our place depending on traffic and including the ferry trip of about 20 minutes. Taking the car on the ferry is quite expensive ($129) – pity because if it was more reasonable, we would probably go more often.
