The Redland City Council are considering establishing a free or low-cost basic camping ground on the Macleay Island foreshore.
There will be a 12 month trial of the campground, and it aims to boost tourism to the Southern Moreton Bay Islands where kayakers, cyclists and boaters can experience a small-scale, free or low-cost holiday.
Councillor Mark Edwards said it was anticipated the camp ground would be a maximum two-night stay with only tent sites available and no power.
