NSW - Brunswick Heads

This is a very quiet park on the banks of the Brunswick River. Most of the park is permanents but there are still a lot of powered and unpowered sites. Amenities are good with two blocks, one old and one new. Just a stroll to the beach and town. Very handy location.
This park is a Top Tourist member.

Qld - Scarbourough

What a find. This park is at the northern tip of the Redclffe Peninsula. There are very few trees but most of the sites are big drive through with concrete slabs. The amenities block is brand new and tastefully done. A pleasure to use. There is a restaurant adjacent to the park, has great coffee, cakes and is open for breakfast and lunch. We often popped in for a coffee. The park is located next to the harbour which makes for a nice stroll.
We can highly recommend this park.

This council owned park is on the beach at Torquay, one of the beachside suburbs at Hervey Bay. Shops and restaurants are across the road and within an easy stroll.
There are two amenities blocks, very well maintained. Most caravan sites are with a slab, a few shade trees and grass.
The sites were $39.00 per night which was school holiday fees.
Very pleasant stay.

Qld - Bundaberg - Bargara

While visiting this area we stayed at the beautiful seaside town of Bargara, about a ten minute drive from downtown Bundaberg.

The caravan park is across the road from the surf club and about 1 klm from the centre of Bargara. Powered sites are $31.00 per night.
The large park of 16 acres has two large amenities blocks, many concrete slabs, trees and lovely grass everywhere. The park is beside the tennis courts, on the edge of the nature walk / bike trail and oval. Each morning we would ride the 12 klm trail and in the afternoons we would swim at the beach. In between we’d walk into town and have coffee.

Fantastic area.

Qld - Sapphire

We stayed at a delightful caravan park in the hills behind Sapphire. The park is beautifully maintained with a pool, animal feeding area, walks, camp kitchen, and outdoor lounge. Each site is very private with trees and bushes dividing each site which are carved out of the hillside. The amenities are extremely clean with white tiled walls and floors.
