Sleep on the reef at the brand-new Lady Musgrave HQ

Pack your swimmers and get ready to don your snorkel; the latest sleep on the reef experience has arrived on the Great Barrier Reef. Located at the southern end of the World Heritage-listed wonder is Lady Musgrave HQ, a three-level pontoon nestled upon the sheltered lagoon waters of Lady Musgrave Island.

The newest addition to a range of stay and play options on the Great Barrier Reef, Lady Musgrave HQ is home to two accommodation options for those times when a day trip simply isn’t enough.

Looking for a wow experience? Opt to snooze under the stars with a luxury glamping option located on the upper deck. After something a bit roomier? Choose to fall asleep to views of incredible marine life in the underwater observatory fitted with bunk-style accommodation. No matter which option you choose, unforgettable memories are guaranteed. 

An overnight stay means you’ll work up an appetite and guests of Lady Musgrave HQ can enjoy home-cooked style dinners made up of the incredible local produce, as well as picnic hampers enjoyed island-style while taking in the sunset from a private beach.

Built with purpose in mind (as well as being the most sustainable and eco-friendly build in the world), Lady Musgrave HQ is the perfect base for both single day and overnight reef-filled adventures, with a variety of snorkel, scuba dive and boat based activities on offer. Spend the morning immersing yourself in the colourful coral and abundant marine life with a snorkel tour or dive course before an afternoon glass bottom boat tour or turtle nesting and hatching tour. Kayaks more your thing? There’s a guided night kayak tour where you’ll see the reef under a whole new lens.  

Lady Musgrave Experience is currently open for bookings, with a variety of day trips, events and overnight stays on offer. If you're not already convinced, check out why you need to visit Lady Musgrave Island.
