Seasonal Spring Adventures to Enjoy in Queensland 

From tropical reefs to red-dirt horizons, Queensland in spring is made for adventure. Warm, sunny days and vibrant blooms set the stage for beach escapes, hinterland hikes, and unforgettable outback experiences.  

Here are our top spring highlights in Queensland: 

Tropical North Wonders 

Make the most of the end of the dry season with a spring escape in Queensland’s tropical north. Whether you’re snorkelling, diving, rainforest walking, or waterfall chasing, the adventures are endless. Along the Great Barrier Reef, the annual coral spawning is a spectacular natural event not to be missed. 

Take in some of Queensland’s most scenic road trips like the Great Tropical Drive, winding past coastal gems such as Port Douglas and inland treasures like the Atherton Tablelands. Discover the region’s diverse wildlife and colourful native birdlife, and join Indigenous-led cultural tours to connect with the land’s rich heritage. 

Coastal Playgrounds 

Treat yourself to warm sea breezes, blossoming jacarandas, and spring surf at some of Queensland’s most beautiful coastal playgrounds, including the Sunshine Coast and the Gold Coast. Wander through Noosa National Park, hike to Mount Coolum for breathtaking views, or relax at a beachfront holiday park in Broadwater, Tallebudgera Creek, or Ocean Beach. 

Venture inland to Springbrook National Park to discover some of the south-east’s best waterfalls. For family fun, the Gold Coast’s iconic waterparks re-open for the spring/summer season, while the abundance of theme parks offers endless opportunities for adventure and excitement. 

Outback Spring Magic 

For something a little less white sands and a little more red-dirt magic, head west for an unforgettable outback adventure. See native wildflowers in bloom, soak in steaming hot springs, and experience the region’s rich cultural heritage. Unwind at Talaroo or Cunnamulla hot springs, or join in the fun at vibrant events such as the Outback Festival in Winton or the legendary Birdsville Races. 

Journey along scenic road trip routes like the Warrego Way, where endless horizons, big skies, and warm outback hospitality create the ultimate Queensland spring escape.
