Hamilton Island, Daydream Island WRECKED by Cyclone Debbie

A WOMAN has shared shocking video of the damage to her Daydream Island room caused by Cyclone Debbie.

The 36-second video shows her room was blown apart in Cyclone Debbie. The ceiling has caved in, doors have been blown off and the floor is strewn with debris.

“Lost my home, job and lots of my possessions. What a horrific 48 hours,” she wrote.

Traumatised guests and residents on Daydream and Hamilton islands will be flown out of the region, which is running low on drinking water.

It was earlier thought military and private helicopters would be used for the evacuation but it is now believed a charter plane may be used.

Where they will be taken to is still being finalised.

“Daydream Island has requested the military,” Whitsunday Mayor Andrew Wilcox said earlier today.
