Cape York Peninsula is an important and iconic place. Cape York’s eastern catchments flow directly to the top third of the world heritage Great Barrier Reef (GBR), including ten of the Reef’s 30 unique bioregions.
Cape York Peninsula is one of six Queensland regions that has developed a Reef Community Action Plan for the community to take part in meaningful local action to benefit the Reef and local environment.
