Accommodation
Thevenard Island
Thevenard Island is a C Class Nature Reserve, offering accommodation at Club Thevenard, or in beach cabins. As well as accommodating holidaymakers, Thevenard Island also accommodates a oil storage facility.
Club Thevenard is a re-furbished ex-mining camp. The 30-room accommodation village caters for up to 55 guests and features a spacious dining room and bar, pool and outdoor relaxation area. It caters for singles, couples, families and groups and is very popular with backpackers and diving groups.
Alternatively, 11 comfortable beachfront cabins really allow you to be at one with nature. Cabins vary from two to five bedrooms and are fully self-contained.
Thevenard Island has its own shop, which sells everything from tackle and bait, to alcohol and food basics. The island receives fresh fruit and veggies every week and there is a large communal freezer for successful fishers.
Moorings are available in front of Thevenard Island for use by private boat owners at a cost of $10 per day.

Direction Island
Direction Island is a small, sandy jewel nestled within its own coral reef, 11 kilometres from the mainland. You can reach the island either by charter boat or private vessel. Direction Island does not have a marina or jetty, there are no roads or swimming pools and definitely no singles bar.
The only man made structure on the whole island is the solar friendly A-frame beach cabin, comfortably sleeping up to six people, which is available to you. Direction Island offers nothing except deserted sandy beaches, coral reefs, endless fishing, snorkelling and diving opportunities, sun and turquoise water. That’s exactly what we like about it, and we think you’ll be impressed as well. This is a truly unique adventure holiday that must be experienced in a lifetime.
For information regarding accommodation costs please contact Mackerel Islands Management on +61 (08) 9184 6444.
Please note this island requires a higher level of boating and outdoor skills, as it is totally self-sufficient. There are no staff on island to assist you!
