Moreton Island has been renamed Mulgumpin, and Moreton Island National Park has been renamed Gheebulum Coonungai.
Gheebulum and Coonungai are the two prominent sand hills situated in the national park. The two words together signify ‘lightning’s playground’.
The changes follow the Federal Court’s recognition of the Quandamooka people’s native title rights to Mulgumpin in November 2019.
