The Fraser Coast, situated three hours’ drive north of Brisbane, is a mecca for caravanners and campers year-round with 23 commercial tourist parks to choose from ... and one of the only places in Australia with parks directly on the beach with no roads to cross. Its attractions are its mild temperatures, between 22 and 9 degrees in winter and 30 and 20 in summer, kilometres of unspoilt, safe beaches sheltered in the lee of K’gariFraser Island and a hinterland rich in industrial and military history.
Hervey Bay
RVs, Caravans & Tents
Enjoy the beautiful climate all year round
The centrepiece of the region is Hervey Bay, stretching across 38km of townships, hamlets and beachside coastal suburbs between Burrum Heads and Urangan. It remains one of the few places on Australia’s east coast where you can park a van right on the shoreline without roads or kerb and channelling to spoil the vista or stub your toe. If salt air is not your preference, Hervey Bay also boasts shady, lakeside or secluded river parks to either pitch a tent or park your RV or caravan. Hervey Bay has a quality RSL and sports clubs, golf courses, fine restaurants, beachside cafés and 16km of paved beachside walking and cycle tracks. Fishing is a go-to recreation in sheltered waters with piers, rivers, lakes, beaches and guided off-shore excursions all catered for.
