About
About Macleay Island, platform 1
Macleay Island has two ferry platforms, and platform 1 handles the island-hopping services rather than the mainland run. Karragarra is 0.2 nautical miles away at 3 minutes with 50 departures a week; Lamb Island is 0.4 nautical miles off at 5 minutes with 51 arrivals.
The mainland link barely appears here. Two sailings a week cross the 3.0 nautical miles to Redland Bay Marina, both on weekday mornings at 08:30 and 08:35, and a single boat a week comes in from Karragarra at 08:30 — arrangements rather than services.
The Southern Moreton Bay Islands sit in the shallow water between Redland Bay and North Stradbroke, with several thousand residents across four inhabited islands and no bridges to any of them. Boats run from 00:23 to 23:58 under four day patterns, and the round-the-clock timetable is what makes living here possible.
