Sustainability Commitment

We are lucky to have such a beautiful home on the Great Barrier Reef;few islands are as naturally captivating as Fitzroy Island. This is why Fitzroy Island Resort is committed to minimising our ecological impact on the environment around us. Rubbish is removed from the island while an onsite sewerage treatment plant treats all waste products. Water samples are sent weekly to an environmental clinic in Cairns to ensure we are having no impact on the environment around us;this includes monitoring our spring water intake to ensure we are not using more than our share! But Fitzroy Island Resort is taking it one step further. We actively use our influence to generate positive changes to the ecosystem;not just around the island here but all along the coast by working with select organisations that are determined to make a change for the better.
