Hi Troy.
I think there are 2 operators.(Bay Island ferries &Stradbroke Ferries).Both leave from Cleveland.There are some great sand tracks & great camping areas along Flinders Beach. Will be quite crowded this time of year.
Camping & 4wd permits can be purchased atvisitor information centre.
Enjoy.

Troy.
I just found a great map of Straddie(Hema map) & it has detailed 4wd tracks on it.The regular maps only seem to show major roads. The best tracks are on the north of the island

I live at Tweed Heads & found it at local camping store. Its been a few years since I was on Straddie& maybe some of the tracks have been closed off my now.
