About French Island

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

French Island is a curious phenomenon lost in time, which has no power poles, no sealed roads and no shopping strips.  With no local government, no churches and no main electricity or water, self-sufficiency is a necessity for the approximately 90 residents that live on the island. 

Beautiful native flora and fauna, rarely seen elsewhere flourish on this island. French Island National Park covers approximately 70% of the island and boasts the most dense disease-free koala population in the world, not to mention 260 bird species, 600 plant species and 100 varieties of native orchids.  If  you love nature, you’ll love French Island
