Has anyone ever stayed in van parks near Yarrabah. I can only find them over near Edmonton on the Bruce. Any suggestions on nearby accommodation for 2 months while working at Yarrabah-we have a 24 ft van.

Yep Fishery Falls.. There is no park close to Yarrabah. Edmonton has a park - not bad but the manager is an absolute goose..

IMHO Fishery is the go- gr8 lil pub as well.


Grrr!!!

Cairns Coconut Resort
Try this: if Edmonton is out, Fishery Falls though good is a bit of a drive, then Cairns Coconut Resort (RACQ five star) is on the southside of Cairns close to the Yarrabah turnoff.

Have you asked at the community as there might be someone with some land & power & water who will let you park the van there

If you dont mind me asking what type of work will you be doing there

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but when I lived in Cairns they reckon that Elvis used to stay at Yarrabah. There was also an interesting tale/myth about his Harley.

The story goes that Elvis had the concrete bunkers high up on the point facing out to the nth/east.

They are still there, but i havnt been there for years.
