What can I see at Cape Hillsborough National Park?

Wake up early at Cape Hillsborough and head to the beach to see wallabies feeding at sunrise. Cape Hillsborough National Park is 50 kilometres (31 miles) north of Mackay, with the Smalleys Beach camping area right on the beachfront. The cape is known for its dramatic rocky shores, remnants of an ancient volcano, as well as area walking tracks that lead to mangrove forests and lookouts.

Hipcamp has the perfect site to match your camping style.
