I came to Magnetic Island with my husband in 2012, we originally come from England but then lived 12 years in New Zealand. We enjoy meeting people and just want you to enjoy the Island as much as we do. Love the Wildlife such fun to always be enjoying the different birds, butterflies etc inthe garden. Great walking tracks here I have just got back from a walk up the Forts and went for the Sunrise and to see Koalas.
