Mount Tempest
Moreton Island National Park
Menu
At 285 metres high, Mount Tempest is the highest stabilised sand dune in the world. The walk to the top of Mount Tempest is a memorable one, with sweeping views of Moreton Bay and the island’s length a spectacular experience. The wildflowers are nice in spring and humpback whales can be spotted migrating in late winter and spring.
