Looking to link up with travellers for the northern part of our journey.

We left Tassie 10 days ago with our Pajero and Jayco campertrailer and our 2 year old son. We are leaving airlie beach tomorrow working our way slowly north and hoping to catch up with other people with kids doing a similar trip. Although we are having a ball on our own, it would be great to meet other young travellers along the way! We have been mixing up caravan parks and free camping which has worked really well so far.
Any suggestions for good camping and/or fishing spots between Airlie and cooktown?

I'm in Cannonvale, back from our trip up north with the kids. For the kids i'd recommend a stay at Cairns Coconut Resort Caravan Park. :)

Free camping available just north of Townsville....see this thread:

Hope that helps and you enjoy your stay.....now we know who brought this cold weather to such a warmer location normally. LOL

I am a bit ahead of you. I especially enjoyed Carmila Beach , south of Sarina. It is on the beach and is a free camp. Wonderful for children.

I am a bit ahead of you but have a look at the blog I am doing. It may give you some ideas. Might see you around the area.

Cheers

We stayed at camilla beach 3 nights ago...it would have been a brilliant spot if the tide didn't go out so far! We are going to stop there again on the way back though. Thanks for that will have a look at your blog now!

I can't find your current blog Duncan...only the 2008 and 2009 links.
