Wallabies at Sunrise and Wilderness by the Sea

Teeming with an abundance of native beauty, Cape Hillsborough and the Hibiscus Coast, is approximately 50km north of Mackay. 

A star attraction is the rugged natural paradise of Cape Hillsborough National Park, where dense rainforest meets the ocean and volcanic rock formations add to the almost pre-historic ambience. 

Cape Hillsborough is famous for its sunrise encounters with wallabies and kangaroos on the beach—but there’s more to explore along this spectacular stretch of coast. Hike through national park trails, walk to Wedge Island at low tide, or base yourself in the nearby beachside communities of Seaforth, Haliday Bay and Ball Bay for a quiet coastal escape.

Near Cape Hillsborough you will find a variety of experiences and environments throughout the Hibiscus Coast. Learn more about how suburb 'The Leap' got it's name by stopping in at the nearby hotel.
