Mackay

Found along the Queensland coastline halfway between Brisbane and Cairns, the Mackay region is where natural experiences fuse with stunningly diverse landscapes, and a farming heritage of sugar cane growers blends with a small bustling regional city.

Discover unspoilt secluded beaches, rainforests, islands and reef. Visit the dramatic coastline of Cape Hillsborough National Park or the tropical hidden oasis of the Eungella National Park and Finch Hatton Gorge, where you may even spot a platypus in its natural surroundings. Fly through rainforest canopies on a zip wire or board a sea plane for a day to a deserted island.
