Neighbourhood

Karragarra Island is the smallest island of the South Moreton Bay Islands. This a place is for a rest and reset. Connect with nature. Discover yourself again. There are no shops, no traffic, no noise, well besides the bush stone curlews but I'll tell you about them later. With a population of around 250 people Karragarra aka Karra has a tight knit friendly community is reminiscent of another time. Whether you like to be out on the bay on the water, swimming in the safe netted area or simply enjoying the solitude Karra has all that and more offer. Karra is only 15 mins from the mainland with ferries running hourly from Redland Bay Marina. Redland Bay is just one hour from Brisbane city and the airport. Karra is part of the Southern Moreton Bay Island group with Macleay, Lamb and Russell islands. Each island has its own character and there are shops and cafes located on Macleay and Russell which is just a few minutes away by ferry. See here for more details on the islands - https://www.visitredlandscoast.com.au/discover/places-to-discover/coastal-islands/southern-islands

Getting to my home

Arriving in Brisbane you'll need to head to Redland Bay Marina to take the passenger ferry or barge to the island. The passenger ferry is only 15 mins and runs regularly every hour and is 50c per trip. Dog owners, if you are bring a dog with you they have to wear a muzzle on the ferry or be in an enclosed pet carrier.

Nearest airport

Brisbane Airport about 50 mins away.

Getting Around

Catch a ferry to either Macleay Island, Russell Island or Redland Bay to go to the supermarket. Alternatively, you can get woolies deliveries to the island. If you are driving here, you can leave your car on the mainland there is plenty of parking within walking distance of the ferry terminal.
