A large bushfire is continuing to burn on North Stradbroke Island. 

 

The blaze is burning in an inaccessible swamp south of Amity Point and is not threatening any properties at this stage. 

 

Redland City Council Mayor Karen Williams said the fire is burning within containment lines and there is no risk to visitors. 

 

Approximately 8,00 people are due to visit the island from today for the school holiday influx - more than quadrupling the population.
