Here you will find a relaxed coastal lifestyle centred on superb beaches, riverside walkways, parklands and recreational activities. The island is also home to Australia’s largest Aluminium Smelter – the State’s largest user of electricity. With only a small variation in seasonal water temperatures, the waters of Tannum Sands and Boyne Island are perfect for year-round swimming and recreation.
