It was a day out for us at the Fraser Coast Outdoor Show – great to see our books sold at the Mickey Blu Stand. (That’s a CAMPS shirt Heatley is sporting – perfect for Father’s Day!) It was an excellent opportunity to check on some Maryborough camps and visit mates in Hervey Bay.
One of those camps is featured below – don’t you just love a budget site that helps community groups?
These other sites are all across the top of Australia. We take you to an outback town we really enjoyed, also in Queensland, and share what to do and two places to camp.
Then we travel further north to WA and a national park camp beside a gorge and a free camp by a pool – you won’t want to swim in this one, though!
Onto more croc spotting on a NT Kakadu cruise – and my mum’s pick of her latest trip.
Finally – our Father’s Day GIVEAWAY is announced, and it is a beauty. Enter today! Find all these camps in the CAMPS App and guides!
If you would like order your own CAMPS Pendium, here is a special coupon code for you:
