The only place to stay on the island is at Heron Island Resort, which accommodates up to 200 guests. The rest of the island is part of Capricornia Cays National Park. The island has nesting habitats for thousands of seabirds, including Wedge-tailed Shearwaters, White-capped Noddies, Buff-banded Rails, Eastern Reef Egrets and Silvereyes.
