Tangalooma Island Resort is a haven located in Tangalooma, Queensland in Australia. Formerly, it was a whaling station and was changed into an island getaway because of its precious flora and fauna and its spectacular views. Couples or families hunting down a super vacation destination would definitely enjoy a Tangalooma Island Resort holiday.

This haven is found on the west side of Moreton Island, close by Moreton Bay. It is known for its spectacular white beaches and has been a whale reserve since the year the whaling station closed down, the year 1962.

When having a Tangalooma Island Resort getaway, you can expect to be greeted by friendly and accommodating staff whilst being left breathless by the glorious white sand beaches. You could also take on a range of activities from wreck diving to feeding and playing with the dolphins. You are guaranteed to definitely treasure every minute of your holiday.

Tangalooma has a very tiny population of 300, but tourism has assisted this small township to grow and keep the scenic and stunning glory of the island. Above 3500 visitors enjoy the resort each week, and even more during peak seasons. The local government has also developed a Centre for Marine Education and Conservation, to inform and train the local population and holidaymakers about the importance of maintaining the marine life in the area. The centre has employed marine biologists to lead information awareness drives and programs, which is included in the nature tour package for holidaymakers.

During a Tangalooma Island Resort holiday, everyone will love their vacation with over eighty activities to select from - but maybe the highlight of your vacation may be the possibility to enjoy the beauty of nature. Visitors can go sight-seeing and feel the stunning sunrise and sunset along the beach, or play with the dolphins that inhabit the sea around the resort.
