The Quandamooka People

The Quandamooka People are a First Nation of over 2000 traditional owners from Moreton Bay, south east Queensland, Australia. “Quandamooka” is a word from the Jandai language used to describe Moreton Bay and the islands within it. Therefore, the Quandamooka People are the people of Moreton Bay.

Quandamooka is the ancestral homeland of the Nunukul, Ngughi and Goenpul peoples, the sub-groups that make up the Quandamooka People. The Quandamooka People are the traditional owners of Minjerribah (North Stradbroke Island), who have owned and occupied the lands and waters of Moreton Bay since time immemorial.

In fact, the Quandamooka People have over 20,000 years’ association with their Country, including Minjerribah.

QYAC

QYAC is the Prescribed Body Corporate (PBC), created in 2011 under the Native Title Act 1993, responsible for managing the native title rights and interests of the Quandamooka People, who currently have native title over 54,000 hectares of land and sea on and around Minjerribah (North Stradbroke Island).

QYAC is also the joint manager, with the State Government, of the Naree Budjong Djara National Park, which is the largest piece of recreational infrastructure on Minjerribah.
