Clairview

Clairview is a tiny coastal spot on the Bruce Highway, about halfway between Rockhampton and Mackay, best known for its sweeping ocean views and dugong habitat just offshore. It’s one of those places where the highway almost touches the beach, so you get a glimpse of the water even without stopping. Right on the foreshore is Barracrab Caravan Park, a laid-back spot with powered sites, cabins, a pub and bistro, and a big outdoor deck looking over the beach. It’s popular with grey nomads, fishers, and anyone chasing a relaxed stopover with a true beachfront feel.

We took an unpowered site for A$36 and had outrageously splendid views.

The tide here swings about 4 metres every 6 hours and the change in outlook is quite incredible.Leggi altro
