From the munching goats silhouetted on nearby Palm Island (put there to feed shipwrecked souls) to the black-and-white posters of a 1950s honeymooning couple riding a giant green turtle (not an activity the current management team condones), and the subdued knowledge that neighbouring Fantome Island was a leper colony until the early 1970s, Orpheus has been around the block.\u003C/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EIt’s got a past that reminds us of Australia’s edge-of-the-world location and connections to our first people. But it’s something we should all know about, and the team on the island are not afraid to shed that light.
