The Quinkan Centre showcases all aspects of Quinkan Country including, Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal heritage, and the natural environment. There is something of interest for everyone - from the keen fisherman to young families! 

Guided tours can be booked from the Centre, including guided tours to world famous Aboriginal rock art galleries such as Split Rock, Mushroom Rock & Giant Horse Gallery. Split Rock is a self guided site, located 12 kms south of Laura and is well set up with boardwalks, interpretive information, toilet and car park. An honesty fee of $5.00 is applied to cover basic maintenance costs at the site. This is payable at the Quinkan Centre, Laura or Lakeland Roadhouse, Lakeland. Currently we are experiencing difficulty in receiving fees which may place access to the site in jeopardy.

As a registered Visitor Information Centre we provide information on attractions, accommodation, travelling conditions within Quinkan Country and throughout the Cape York Peninsula. 

The Cultural Centre also has a select range of regional Aboriginal arts and crafts and a variety of books, maps, souvenirs and postcards available for sale.

Please contact the Quinkan Centre for further information, tour bookings and general tourist information.
