WALK WITH THE WALLABIES ON THE BEACH AT CAPE HILLSBOROUGH NATIONAL PARK!! Teeming with an abundance of native beauty are Cape Hillsborough and the Hibiscus Coast north of Mackay, where the rainforest meets the rocky volcanic headlands. The rugged scenery, picturesque walking tracks and native wildlife are what make this destination a must to be explored. Cape Hillsborough is most famous for being the focal point for an iconic Australian scene, wallabies on the beach during sunrise. The morning sunrise at Casuarina Beach is an unforgettable Australian experience. Watch the sun rise from behind the Coral Sea and its tropical islands, while wallabies bound along the sand and feast along the water's edge. Explore nearby walking tracks to view a plethora of colourful birds and butterflies, including the vivid Ulysses butterfly. Meander through a mangrove community, eucalypt open forest and vine thicket along the Diversity Boardwalk, or discover the 1.6 kilometre Juipera Plants Trail for a fascinating insight into local Aboriginal history. At low tide, you can walk the causeway to Wedge Island, which has a small tranquil beach and coral reefs perfect for snorkelling. Just keep an eye on the incoming tide to avoid getting stranded. Catch your own fresh marinara feast, with fish and crabs plentiful from Andrew's Point, Sandy Bay and Casuarina Beach. There are barbecue facilities and a children's playground close to the beach. On your leisurely drive to Cape Hillsborough stop in at the Old Station Tea House - a delightful converted railway station serving morning teas and lunch. Sit and enjoy a Devonshire tea, cheesecake, sandwiches or wood fired pizza in a lovely garden ambiance. The old station is as much an attraction as it is an eating place. Open Monday to Sunday 9 am to 3.30 pm, closed Wednesdays.
