Burrum Heads Beachfront Tourist Park

Wake to river breezes and wander straight to the water at Burrum Heads Beachfront Caravan Park, a laid-back escape at the mouth of the Burrum River. [2] **Beachfront serenity with upgraded comforts, dog-friendly options and an on-site boat ramp—just 30 minutes from Hervey Bay and Maryborough.** [2] If you're chasing easy coastal days, this fully upgraded park delivers: spacious, well-spaced van sites, refreshed internal roads and modern essentials including a contemporary amenities block, laundry, camp kitchen and BBQ area. Choose absolute riverfront powered sites (non-dog) or bring your pooch to the Southside dog-friendly area. Drop the tinny in without leaving the park, then settle in for sunsets, fishing and safe swimming. Whale watching runs out of nearby Hervey Bay from late July to early November, and island day tours—including to K'gari (formerly Fraser Island) and Lady Elliot Island—can be arranged through the park. [2] ## Where is it and how do you get here? The park sits in Burrum Heads at the river mouth, a short drive of roughly 30 minutes to both Hervey Bay and Maryborough, and around three and a half hours north of Brisbane by road—perfect for a weekend or longer escape. [2] ## Which sites are dog-friendly? Bring your furry mate to the non-riverfront Southside, which is dog-friendly. Prefer a pet-free stay? Book a powered riverfront site—these are non-dog to keep things peaceful right by the water. [2] ## What facilities will you find on site? The park has undergone a thorough refresh, with reshaped and more spacious van sites, improved roadways throughout, and updated underground services including power, water and sewer connections. Guests also enjoy a contemporary amenities block, laundry facilities, a communal camp kitchen, a BBQ area, and an upgraded manager's office on site. [2] ## Can you launch a boat or kayak from the park? Yes. An on-site boat ramp lets you head straight out onto the Burrum River without the hassle of towing elsewhere—ideal for fishing, boating and gentle paddling, with safe swimming close at hand too. [2] ## When's the best time for whale watching and island day trips? Hervey Bay's whale watching season runs from late July through to early November, giving you the chance to see humpback whales in one of Australia's most celebrated whale watching destinations. Island day tours, including to K'gari (formerly Fraser Island) and Lady Elliot Island, are available year-round and can be organised through the park. [2][11] ## What are check-in times and reception hours? Check-in is from 12:00pm and check-out is by 10:00am. Reception is open daily from 7:30am to 5:30pm for arrivals, local tips and tour bookings.
