Inskip Point

Inskip Point is a narrow sandy peninsula at the northern tip of the Cooloola Coast in the Gympie Region, Queensland, separating Tin Can Bay from the Great Sandy Strait opposite K'gari (Fraser Island). It is managed as part of the Inskip Peninsula Recreation Area and serves as the main barge departure point to K'gari. The point is known for its long beach, 4WD tracks, beach camping, fishing and views across the strait.

Visitors can expect a long, exposed sandy point with wide beaches, dunes and views across the Great Sandy Strait to K'gari. The area is a 4WD recreation and camping reserve with designated beach camping zones, fishing spots and the vehicle barge terminal to K'gari. There are no shops at the point itself; the landscape is natural and open, with soft sand tracks, tidal flats and ocean on the eastern side.

Inskip Peninsula forms part of the Cooloola Coast within the traditional lands of the Butchulla people. The point developed as a fishing and recreation area and as the principal mainland access to K'gari, with formal management as Inskip Peninsula Recreation Area for conservation and recreation.

The area lies within Butchulla Country and is culturally significant to the Butchulla people as part of the Great Sandy region. It is valued as a gateway to K'gari, which holds World Heritage significance, and as a long-standing coastal recreation and fishing place for local communities and visitors.
