Visitor Use
The potential impacts of visitors to the Park include the accidental introduction of pests and diseases, disturbance to nesting birds, littering and habitat degradation (along walking tracks and picnic areas). Due to difficulty of access and requirements that visitors be accompanied by permitted tour operators, visitor numbers to the Park are low and carefully controlled. This assists in preventing further pest species reaching the island, and reduces disturbance to nesting sea birds. Visitors are not permitted to camp on the island. All rubbish is removed from the island.
