Some of the best Great Barrier Reef experiences are less than half a day's drive, and if you’re towing a van can also include some wonderful beachside stays in some truly beautiful locations.

The BarraCrab Caravan Park in Clairview is about 100k’s south of the Sugarcane town of Mackay on the North Queensland coast. This family-owned and run caravan park is absolutely beachfront. Enjoy relaxing walks along the beach, great fishing with its unique and friendly vibes. This beautiful stretch of coastline offers calm beaches, soft broad waters and magnificent wildlife.
