Chinese buy Australia’s South Molle Island in Whitsundays

A Chinese investors group has purchased the South Molle Island in the heart of Whitsundays – this only a year after purchasing the nearby Daydream Island Resort and Spa.

China Capital Investment Group reportedly coughed up $25 million for the little piece of heaven.

South Molle, a small 12 hectare island, will no doubt be developed into a stunning resort island – it comes with its own little rainforest, secluded bays, and barrier reefs with stunning white sand beaches throughout.  

Former owner Craig Ross put the island on the market in April.

A spokesman for the Chinese investment group said: “This was a great opportunity to acquire one of the last large-scale development opportunities in the Great Barrier Reef.”
