Lord Howe Island Expedition

Nestled in the Tasman Sea, Lord Howe Island is a picturesque gem situated approximately 600 kilometres east of the Australian mainland. This idyllic island, part of New South Wales, is renowned for its lush landscapes, pristine beaches, and rich biodiversity. With its crescent-shaped silhouette and towering peaks, Lord Howe Island was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1982, celebrated not only for its natural beauty but also for its unique and diverse bird life. The island is home to one of the world's most significant seabird colonies. Birds such as the Wedge-tailed Shearwater, Sooty Tern, and White Tern can be seen in large numbers, particularly during the breeding season. The island's cliffs, beaches, and offshore islets provide ideal nesting sites for these seabirds. Lord Howe Island is also a sanctuary for several endemic bird species. The Lord Howe Woodhen, once on the brink of extinction, has made a remarkable comeback thanks to dedicated conservation efforts. Come with us on this exciting journey and discover the large variety of landscapes & wildlife on the island.
