After spending two days on Magnetic Island, we were ready to explore Townsville attractions. After jumping off the ferry, we drove to our Discovery Caravan Park and set up our camp. I had a little surprise when I took my power cable and wanted it to connect to the power box. Inside I found a…
We have heard so many different things about Magnetic Island that we decided to check it ourselves. Magnetic Island is situated only 7 km offshore from Townsville Harbour. There are two types of ferries: passenger and car. We wanted to explore the island properly so decided to take our car. The car ferry with Fantasea…
Rollingstone Caravan Park We wanted to see Paluma National Park, so we stopped in Rollingstone Caravan Park. Rollingstone Caravan Park is located 62 km north of Townsville, 3 km of the highway, right at the shoreline. It offers various accommodation, including villas, cabins and camping sites. It was the middle of December, so there were not…
After we reached the east coast we started moving very slowly in comparison to the previous stages of our trip. Every time we drive only 50 to 100 kilometers to the next town. The reason was simple – there were so many attractions to see and we did not want to miss anything. After we…
We heard about Mission Beach and Dunk Island as popular tourist destinations. Also, it was a town where the Sea Patrol series (2007-2011) was shot, so we decided to pay a visit and stay there a few days. There are three main parts of Mission Beach: Mission Beach itself, Wongaling Beach, and South Mission Beach. …
After more than two weeks, we finally left Cairns and continued our journey. We enjoyed Cairns as it had so much to offer. We still had one more attraction to get to – Babinda Kayaking but we decided to approach it from our next camp. This time we did not drive far, only 90 km…
In our second week in Cairns, we still had a few places to see. Our plan was to visit Kearneys Falls, Cattana Wetlands, and Barron Gorge Hydro Station. But let’s start from the beginning. After six months of travelling and at least visiting thirty different pools, I must finally say that Nell had made great…
Regretfully, after two weeks in Port Douglas we ‘cut the roots’ and drove south to Cairns. Port Douglas will remain in our memories for a long time. We will definitely come back here. There were so many Cairns attractions on our list and we could not wait to see them. #1 Cairns Coconut Resort Our…
The next day we were planning to go to Kuranda and Barron Falls via Black Mountain Road. It has already been our second week in Port Douglas. We love this town so much that we just could not leave. The town’s amazing atmosphere, surrounding mountains, Four Mile Beach, well-supplied shops and the mix of good…
The morning welcomed us with rain but it was not surprising at all. After all we were in Daintree National Park. It was never a pleasant feeling when the fabric parts of our trailer were soaked with water like a sponge. It was very warm so we did not complain at all. Fortunately, we did…
