Cape Hillsborough

Travel Guide

Easily the BEST campsite in this region of Queensland. We only booked two nights and regretted it. Could have easily spent a week here! This was the view from our private access to Smalleys Beach from our campsite. No trickery, this is the actual view! We are not professional photographers, this is nature at its finest. Be sure to pre-book your campsite as this campgrounds fills up (easy to see why). During summer you cannot swim in the water due to the Marine Stingers in North Queensland, however from May - October you are safe to enjoy these pristine waters.

Wake up early when visiting Cape Hillsborough National Park to see the kangaroos graze on the beach at sunrise. They're not afraid of humans, but there can be a lot of people gathering, so make sure to get there early, before the sun has risen over the island. A zoom lens is also very useful! #BeachBound
Wake up early and watch the kangaroos and wallabies have breakfast.
Walking on the beach in Cape Hillsborough. If you wake up for sunrise you can see kangaroos and wallabies come down to the beach to feed.

Spotless room! Comfortable beds, bedding and big plush pillows. We all slept very well! Kangaroo experience was amazing! They have 2 kangas that just hang around so you can go see them anytime. Food is a bit far away, so I’d recommend getting groceries before you arrive. We had a big cabin with 2 ...

The entrance door was sticking and had to be careful that it had closed properly. Room was sufficient size but the window wouldn’t close properly. This resulted in occasional smell of cigarettes from elsewhere. The window screens were extremely dusty and dirty. The bed was saggy and I could feel ...

2nd stay there and a great spot, room was not directly in the afternoon sun, so the room is not so boiling hot that the AC couldn’t cope,unlike the last place we stayed at across the road starting with an O, on our last visit to MacKay.
