CAPE UPSTART N.Q can anyone help

From what I have read you can only get in by boat. Can say a nice place though, stopped there a couple of times sailing up the coast.
Give Parks and Wildlife a call, or try there web site www.epa.qld.gov.au

Wanted to visit last Nov, but a local said the park was inaccessable because yanks had bought land in front of the park, and closed the road to the public.

That was their story anyway.

Access to Cape Upstart is by boat only. The locals use the Molongle creek boat ramp which has a mooring pontoon and a channel dredged out into the bay so you can get in and out from half tide up. There is a small caravan park there as well. Access is via sealed road about half k south of Gumlu. The other alternative is from Groper Creek but this is further away.

Sorry to say the road into Cape Upstart Station which I have no doubt you refer to is now closed due to thoughtless actions of bastard thieves etc.

There is now no way for the public to access the beautiful beach south of Cape Upstart and Cape Creek. The only access to Cape Upstart itself is via the northern side which ia a haven for Burdekin cane farmers families. Boat access only I am afraid.

As a child I spent many weekends on the beautiful beach south of the Cape, but alas it is no longer possible to get there.

The owners of CU station tried many schemes to allow access to respectable people but they all failed due to the wanker element in our society.

That place was great, aleast we had the chance to see it.

THANKS.
