Woodman Point Quarantine Station

This popular walking tour takes you to the isolation hospital, the oldest crematorium in Australia and more. There are also extensive displays within the heritage buildings.

Since 1851, the site has seen patients with influenza, including the Spanish flu after WWI, leprosy, smallpox, typhus and bubonic plague. It was the main quarantine facility for the state until 1978.

Listen to stories about former patients and staff shared by Friends of Woodman Point volunteer guides, many of whom are descended from those staff.

All followed by tea, coffee and cake!
