Australia’s Southernmost Coral Reefs 🪸🐠

Elizabeth and Middleton Reefs, captured by @jonnyfuhri, are part of the Lord Howe Marine Park and hold the title of the southernmost open-ocean platform coral reefs on Earth.
Remote and ecologically rich, these reefs have been protected since 1987 and sit approximately 150 km north of #LordHoweIsland. Perched atop volcanic seamounts in the Lord Howe Seamount Chain, they form a vital part of Australia’s underwater heritage 🌊

Happy Easter from #LordHoweIsland! One of the best family adventures this time of the year is a visit to Little Island.🌴🌴🌴

🚲 Rent some bikes and head south to take in the majestic views of Mount Gower and Mount Lidgbird up close. After a bit of rain, this part of the island transforms and the more rain the better as beautiful cascades of waterfalls add even more magic to the landscape. The small kids will enjoy the puddles and the birds!

🚌 Book a bus tour or a guided tour with @chasenthyme_tours and learn more about flora, fauna and history, as well as life on the island from the past to the present.

🥾 In the afternoon, walk the Little Island track and keep an eye on the skies - you might catch the spectacular aerial courtship displays of the Providence Petrel. One of the world’s rarest birds, the Providence Petrel returns to nest in the southern mountains, making this a truly special sight to witness.

🧗 For adventurous families with teenagers or adult-only groups, a full-day guided hike up Mount Gower is an unforgettable challenge. Book with @lhienvirotours or @seatosummitexpeditions and tackle one of Australia’s most iconic hikes. This 14-kilometre return trek takes you up to the summit where you’ll be rewarded with panoramic views of Lord Howe Island and beyond. It’s a physically demanding but incredibly rewarding experience - perfect for those looking to push their limits and soak up some serious natural beauty.

Marine sanctuaries on Lord Howe Island show how protecting just 30% of the ocean can allow for 100% of it to thrive.

Thanks to @greenpeaceap and Dean Hiscox from @lhienvirotours, for sharing insights on how marine sanctuaries protect fragile ocean ecosystems and let them flourish.

“If you have the courage and the intent to set these areas aside for total conservation, then the benefits are going to be massive. It will be a longer term gain rather than seeing a whole system crash because it’s overfished.”

A day on #LordHoweIsland 🏝️

April is a great month to visit Lord Howe. Enjoy the fresh breeze while hiking, spot the Providence Petrels, and take a dip in the sea, which is at the perfect temperature. Recent rain has brought glowing mushrooms to life, adding to the island’s charm! Dolphins have also been frequenting the waters lately, sparking extra joy for both visitors and locals alike 🤗
