While actual hand shaking with locals will be out , a welcoming hand is being extended to Townsville residents to visit nearby Magnetic Island under the new relaxed movement conditions that come into play from midnight Friday . To mark the easing of restrictions , the Townsville Bulletin ran a list of 50 things to do within a 50 kilometre radius of the city- a visit to Magnetic Island #1 . Number 40 is the wreck of the SS City of Adelaide which ran aground in l916 on Magnetic Island , the paper saying it is accessible at low tide . A vital bit of information not provided for anyone wanting to inspect the wreck is that it is a well known venomous stonefish area, so don't go walking about barefooted in the shallows .
Island in the sun - Magnetic .
