Hibiscus Coast
Cape Hillsborough

Beyond the town beaches, approximately 25 kilometres north of Mackay, lies the Hibiscus Coast. Enjoy a day trip that takes you through a cradle of fertile sugar fields and unique mountain formations to these isolated beaches. Surrounded by the delightful seaside towns of Seaforth, Halliday Bay, Ball Bay and Cape Hillsborough, this area provides accommodation, restaurants, shops and friendly, warm welcomes.

Seaforth and Halliday Beaches are two largely untouched beaches that are very popular with tourist and locals for their picnic and barbecue areas, dotted along the foreshore. Both have stinger resistant nets. Located 50 kilometres north of Mackay with facilities nearby.

Cape Hillsborough's 816 hectare national park nestles into the coastline, sharing this spectacular beach with kangaroos and ominous rocky crops. The park includes a National Park Information Centre, picnic and barbecue area and public toilets. Also offers a variety of walking trails and the nearby Cape Hillsborough Nature Resort offers accommodation options from caravan and camping, motel suites to beachfront huts.
