📖 About The Desert

The Desert is a striking stretch of exposed sand dunes on North Stradbroke Island (Minjerribah) in south-east Queensland, accessible by ferry from Cleveland. The area is known for its sweeping dune landscapes that rise above the coastline, offering a dramatic and remote feel unusual for a beach so close to Brisbane. It attracts adventurers, sandboarders, and nature lovers drawn to the raw beauty of one of the world's largest sand islands.
