Things To See and Do
Bowling Green Bay National Park
Townsville
Would you like to..
Diverse habitats are protected in Bowling Green Bay National Park, the largest coastal park in the region. Its coastal plains are dramatically set against a backdrop of rugged granite mountains rising abruptly in the distance. Camp overnight at Alligator Creek campground; or visit for the day, picnic among the gum trees and swim in the creek's deep pools. (The campground, picnic area and toilets are wheelchair accessible.) Look for agile wallabies, allied rock-wallabies and rufous bettongs feeding in the cool of the day. Go spotlighting for nocturnal animals. Meander along the creek to Alligator Falls.
