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. When I went to connect my power cable to the power box, I was in for a surprise. Inside was a green frog that…
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…

Sleeping at Wonga Caravan Park was a wonderful experience as we were just a few meters away from Wonga Beach, allowing us to hear the soothing sound of the ocean throughout the night. The next day, we were treated to a breathtaking sunrise that painted the sky with vibrant hues of orange and pink. The…

We had to cover a distance of approximately 520 km, with not much to see on the way except for a few small towns…

The town was specifically built to serve…
