About 1500 kilometres north of Brisbane, most people would fly into Townsville, pick up their hire camper van and commence their tour from
there. A long and rich history and immeasurable depth of culture give this city a unique character that is very evident when walking through its
centre and its streets. Restaurants and galleries will entice you in, and the shopping is second to none. And if you get bored of this, then just
round the corner are some of the most beautiful palm tree-lined beaches in the country where you can soak up the sun and go for a dip. This
article gives you more ideas on beaches to visit in Queensland.
A popular trip from Townsville is to head north to Mission Beach. Although this town is small, it is bustling with activity and energy, with many
tourists coming to sample some of the fourteen kilometres of beachfront here. Thick rainforest often converges onto the sandy beaches,
giving the feel of a real tropical paradise. There are any number of outdoor activities for you to pursue here, with kayaks, canoes, jet skis and
fishing gear for hire in the town. Tours and hikes to see the flora and fauna of the surrounding rainforest will also help keep you entertained!
If you want more of an outback experience, then strike out for Charters Towers, an historic gold rush town ninety minutes drive south west of
Townsville. This town is proud of its heritage, and on its streets there are over sixty buildings of historical significance. Do the tours and learn
about the gold rush, but dont forget to try your hand at fishing the nearby rivers and lakes, as the barrumundi grow strong and thick in these
parts.
