Australia plans to sell Spectacle Island, a heritage site in Sydney Harbour, sparking debate over Indigenous return, preservation, and private development.
Spectacle Island, a historically significant site in Sydney Harbour, is among 67 defence properties set for sale in a $3 billion federal divestment plan to fund modern defence priorities.
The island, once a naval explosives site, is at the center of a push by an Aboriginal land council to return it to traditional custodianship for Indigenous-led tourism and education.
Critics argue the sale risks compromising its heritage, environmental, and cultural value, with concerns over private development threatening historic structures.
While the government calls the site surplus, advocates urge public or Indigenous management to preserve its legacy and maximize public benefit.
