Russell IslandCanaipa

Welcome to Russell Island. You'll find island life a bit different to the mainland — slower, friendlier, and with a few quirks worth knowing about. This guide covers the essentials: getting here, getting around, services, and how to plug into the local community.

Swim only inside the netted enclosures. Sharks and other wildlife are active in these waters.
