Attractions

Cape Hillsborough

A visit out to Cape Hillsborough National Park is a must if time allows. Although a slightly extended drive from Airlie Beach (approximately 1.5 hours), the incredible wallaby population that like to visit the beach in the early morning or before nightfall are an amazing site to behold for anyone wanting to witness these iconic furry friends in their natural environment.

The sweeping beach and rolling hills is another visually pleasing reason to make the visit, as well as some great bush walks exploring the coastline. Being close to Eungella National Park, it is easy enough to drop in for a visit as part of an extended trip venturing further afield.
