Townsville

Townsville, Australia's largest tropical city is framed by 2.5km of beachfront, The Strand, and is centred on one of the country's most diverse regions. Bounded by the Burdekin region to the south, the tropical hinterlands stretching to Mission Beach in the north and the outback ranges of Charters Towers in the west, North Queensland offers a host of unique holiday options. And with more than 300 days of sunshine annually, there's no better time to experience it all!
