Beachfront holiday park in Seaforth with kangaroo encounters at sunrise
Accommodations
Guests stay in beachfront cabins, beach lodges, or beach huts, with newly renovated interiors. The cabins include essential kitchen appliances such as a microwave, toaster, and kettle, plus private bathroom. Each unit has outdoor furniture and a flat-screen TV.
Wildlife & Beach
At sunrise, rangers feed wild kangaroos and wallabies on the beach, allowing guests to observe them up close from a marked area. The beach provides access to Wedge Island at low tide, where a tidal rock pool is located. Guests should wear shoes for the rocky path to the pool and check tide times with staff.
Amenities
The park features a year-round outdoor swimming pool with a view and a fence around it, plus a pool slide for children. Other on-site activities include mini golf, a playground, pool table, and giant chess. The pool, BBQ areas, and camp kitchens are spread throughout the park and cleaned regularly.
Dining & Services
The reception houses a cafe that serves coffee and pizzas, along with a minimarket stocked with groceries and souvenirs. An in-house bar is available for guests to unwind. The park also offers a barbecue area and camp kitchen facilities with stoves and fridge/freezers.
Location & Activities
The park is located on the edge of Cape Hillsborough National Park, 55 km from Mackay Airport. Walking trails range from easy wooden footpaths suitable for wheelchairs to harder climbs with lookouts over the ocean. The nearby Seaforth Bowls Club offers a courtesy coach for dinner, and Eungella National Park is a recommended day trip.
