Hi
We camped at One Tree Rocks in Sept. It is a great spot, nice shady trees just off
the beach. It looked much the same as a lot of the other beach spots all the way up the eastern beach.There are no facilities there. It is only a couple of k's up
the beach from
Eurong, so there is a fair bit of traffic up and down
the beach.
The Beach Bar at
Eurong was great for a drink and they also have a nice
pool there which is great for the kids. There were 2 dingos hanging around the
camp when we were there (they were the only ones we saw in a week on the whole island).
We also stayed at the top
Waddy Point campground (the fenced one). That was a
great camp and not much traffic going through. It is only a short walk down to
the beach. There are
toilets and showers there (showers take $1 coins). It was shady and sheltered. The beachfront
camping area at
Waddy Point also looked nice but with little kids I would go for the top one. Lake McKenzie is beautiful but very busy... we had to wait for a spot in the
carpark.
Lake Birrabeen is almost as beautiful but nowhere near as busy.
The Qld EPA Parks and Wildlife website is good and you can get a conditions report too.
We loved the whole island! Can't wait to go back as a week just wasn't long enough.
Enjoy!
