Rockhampton

Info
Take Care

This is the point at which you start to see Saltwater Crocodiles. North from here you should stay out of the water unless you are sure that it is safe.

Attractions
Mt Archer

Great view from the top of this mountain. There is a boardwalk at the top here. You can walk to the summit but it is a tough walk.

Mount Etna Caves National Park

Interesting cave system. If you have an experienced group you can go caving independently.

Capricorn Caves

Guided tours of the incredible Cathedral Cave. To end the tour you can go through the narrow Zig Zag passage and emerge into daylight on the swinging bridge in the dry rainforest. They also offer an ‘adventure caving’ tour for $75.

Rockhampton Zoo

Free zoo with native animals set in beautiful botanic gardens. 3pm is the time to go to see the animals being fed.

Food
Captain Nemos Subs

Really good sandwich spot in Rockhampton. Try the Olympics Warm Up with Rockhampton's famous beef.

Accommodation
Rockhampton YHA

Nice, quiet and clean hostel.
