QUARANTINE HISTORY
North Head Quarantine Station was used from the 1830's to isolate people suspected to be carrying contagious diseases such as Spanish Influenza, Smallpox or Bubonic Plague. This strict quarantine was enforced in the hope that these deadly diseases would not reach the general population in Sydney.

The Quarantine Station's heritage buildings reflect a rich history. Thousands of carved stone engravings record the diverse cultural and social backgrounds of quarantined passengers, mapping the station's use from its early beginnings until its closure. Evidence of Aboriginal presence also highlights the Quarantine Station's important cultural and spiritual past.

THINGS TO DO
Q Station is open to the public 7 days a week - Day Visitors are welcome - admission is free.

Located on Sydney's Northern Beaches, Q Station is just 5 minutes from Manly and 20 minutes from Sydney CBD.
