C O R P O R A T E S O C I A L R E S P O N S I B I L I T Y

Hamilton Island is on a mission to be green despite being surrounded by a sea of blue. With the tremendous number of visitors

to the island each year, having strategies in place to reduce the impact on the environment is crucial to the island’s

sustainability – even if you’re not aware of them.

In this day and age, protecting our natural resources and reducing our impact on the environment is a real consideration to any

thinking person. The importance of having environmental initiatives in place is accepted by individuals and big business alike,

but the ways in which great gains are made are not always evident, indeed it is often the little things that add up and make the

biggest difference. On Hamilton Island, protecting the environment and doing everything possible to minimise the impact of

the many visitors each year is essential to ensure the island’s survival. Maintaining a positive balance and protecting the often

fragile ecosystem of the island is a major consideration in the day to day running of Hamilton Island and a crucial factor to be

considered whenever large-scale works are in their planning stages.

Much has been written about the careful planning that went into the design and construction of the world-famous qualia

resort, ensuring that the design was not only sympathetic to the area, but preserving as much of the naturally occurring

vegetation as possible and in fact weaving it into the very design and making it part of the finished project. Despite increasing

the development costs considerably, the Hamilton Island Golf Club too, was specifically designed to fit in with the rugged

natural environment of Dent Island and retains the natural soils and vegetation, while an environmentally sustainable irrigation

system has been put in place to keep the course in mint condition, but without any adverse effects on the ecosystem. Indeed,

although Hamilton Island is the largest resort island in the Whitsundays, more than 70 percent of it is preserved in its virgin

state, home to a wide variety of animals, trees, ferns and grasses. In addition to being a bushwalker’s paradise, the island

naturally occurring eucalypts, the leaves from which are used to feed the koalas at the Hamilton Island Wildlife Park on the

island. The feeding of other animals though is discouraged on Hamilton Island, with guests educated not to ‘feed the locals’

and garbage bins supplied all over the island that have been specially designed to keep the rubbish in but the local fauna out.

The extensive education program of course extends to the surrounding waters and the Great Barrier Reef itself, with only

highly qualified and eco-accredited tourism businesses operating out of Hamilton Island, ensuring best practice is always

maintained.

Hamilton Island Enterprises (HIE) is also a staunch supporter of marine park research and is a long-standing participant in the

Eye on the Reef program which, along with some 40 other marine tourism operators, constantly monitor and collect data on

the health of the Great Barrier Reef, working closely with Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority (GBRMPA).

All of these things and so many more go on day after day as an integral part of life on the island. Water is recycled wherever

possible and a state-of-the-art waste treatment plant converts sewage to ‘A’ Class treated effluent, 90 percent of which is

reused to irrigate the many parks and gardens around the island. Recycling is a particularly important initiative and Hamilton

Island’s new recycling plan aims to reduce general waste by 70-80 percent in the next 12 months! This best practice recycling

plan separates each material at its source and is designed to make the process as easy for all involved to implement as

possible, through signage, communication, education and availability and easy access to recycling bins. Supported by the

Queensland Government’s Public Place Recycling Program, this initiative brings together all parties on the island, from staff to

guests, local school children and tour operators, and will see awards introduced to encourage participation and recognise

those who make a difference.



It all adds up. Phosphate-free cleaning products, power tags to turn off electricity when guests leave their rooms and of course,

the ubiquitous electric golf buggies which are so much a part of the Hamilton Island lifestyle, providing transport without any

harm to the environment (only service vehicles exist on the island and fuel-powered buggies are being phased out completely).

Of course monitoring our impact on the environment and maintaining a healthy balance is an ongoing process, so in 2007 the

Hamilton Island Environmental Club was formed. Made up of staff and residents, it exists to discuss and work to improve the

environmental initiatives on the island, while Hamilton Island and various concessionaires, staff and clubs are also actively

involved in projects like ‘Clean up Australia Day’, not only on Hamilton and Dent Island, but also on neighbouring Whitsunday

and Henning Islands.

It’s ongoing but an essential process that is constantly being improved and refined to ensure that every possible base is

covered to see that Hamilton Island and its surrounds not only survive, but thrive.

Contact us for more information on suitable group activities such as tree- planting, environmental talks from local Marine

Biologists (in conjunction with Great Barrier Reef Day Trip) or even a bike building activity.
