With summer holidays right around the corner, if you haven’t started thinking about your next getaway, start now! Summer is a great time of year to enjoy a caravan and camping holiday, with sunny days and blue skies – perfect for long days at the beach. Here’s why we think your next adventure should be spent at one of Queensland’s amazing beachfront caravan holiday parks! 

Why choose a beachfront caravan holiday park: 

Australia is home to some of the most spectacular beaches and stunning coastline in the world – and what better way to truly appreciate it than in a beautiful cabin with ocean views or parking your van in a powered site metres from the sun, surf and sand? 

When you think of a beachfront camping holiday, think of: 

  • sunshine-filled days spent on the beach 
  • morning sunrise or evening sunset over the ocean 
  • spreading your toes in the sand 
  • toasting marshmallows around the campfire at night 
  • digging into a fish & chips meal on the foreshore 
  • the sound of crashing waves 
  • endless fun activities – fishing, kayaking, swimming, paddle-boarding, beach volleyball
  • vitamin d and the fresh ocean air 
  • sleeping under the stars 
  • quality time spent with friends and family 

A bonus? Caravan holiday parks can offer more than just a beachfront location. They also offer amazing amenities to make your holiday unforgettable – indoor games rooms, communal BBQs and firepits, jumping pillows, swimming pools with waterslides. Plus, they have accommodation options to suit everyone regardless of your preference.
