KINKUNA gETAWAY!4wd Action lists it as "Too good to tell", and some say "think of Fraser island without the bullshit".
no crowds, no Barge fees, no extreme prices.. just beach camping like it should be. i can think of nothing better than sipping the frosty brew in my hand, squishing the my feet into the sand as the fishing rod starts that oh too familiar TAP... tap tap.. Or later in the evening sitting around the campfire telling stories of times long past, with a belly full of campfire Spuddies and fish. I've borrowed some info from various websites and pasted it below for anyone chasing further info before making a decision.. I'm booked in already and for those of you who aren't sure.. I'll make it easy.. the button will take you straight to the ParksQ website.. |
