Parks & Nature
The reef off Keppel Island is as beautiful as any you will find further north in fact there are species of coral here that are not found further north. Another benefit of visiting the reef here is that most of the tourists are elsewhere.
Check out hiring 'Grace' for the day of beautiful cruising around the Keppels - you will love it.
