Daydream Island is one of the closest islands to the mainland, lying just 5 km north-east of Shute Harbour. It is a 1 km long, 100 to 200 m wide island, reaching a height of 50 m. The Daydream Island Resort dominates the island, with accommodation toward the northern end and the Beach Club on the southern point, with its three beaches and all facilities linked by tree-lined walking tracks. The island is protected from the Trades by the larger South Molle Island 2 km to the south-east (Daydream is officially named West Molle Island). As a result, waves are usually low to calm. The island has 2.5 km of shoreline, containing three beaches; two at each end and a small pocket beach on the north-west side. Beach Club beach (DAY2) lies at the southern end of the small island and extends from the southern tip for approximately 400 m up the western side. The beach is backed by a seawall, volleyball court and other facilities and is crossed by a helipad at its southern end, a concrete boat ramp in the centre and a small jetty that services the tour boats toward the northern end. The beach is composed of coarse sand and coral rubble and is moderately steep, with rocky flats exposed at low tide. read more
