Cape Hillsbrough and Bouldercombe | Best Campsites in Queensland
Last time we were in Rockhampton, we stayed in Bouldercombe. We loved it that much that we just had to go back and show you guys probably the best free campsite in Queensland. Blog post here:
But before that though, we decided to stop in Cape Hillsbrough and stay in a national park campsite here you camped right next to the beach for just $6 dollars each! Definitely worth a stop to the on your way down the Queensland coast.

Mackay: Filled with wildlife and history
The Mackay region is an inviting blend of secluded beaches, elusive wildlife and rural communities. The district is home to over 120,000 people and is nicknamed the 'sugar capital of Australia' producing more than a third of the nation's cane sugar. The natural encounters are abundant within the district and include Cape Hillsborough National Park, where the local kangaroo population roam the sandy white beaches; and the Eungella Hinterland, home to the elusive platypus.
Just off shore also lies the Cumberland Island group which are protected by the Great Barrier Reef. Most of the islands are national park, including the majority of Brampton and Keswick Islands. Many are also important rookeries for the protected flatback and green turtles. St Bee's Island hosts a large colony of koalas currently being researched by Earthwatch. These fabulous locations just off Mackay's coast will suit those who wish to snorkel and those who prefer to cruise our pristine waters while relaxing onboard and taking in the spectacular scenery.
