Sunlodge Caravan Park

Wake to ocean views and the gentle hush of Gatakers Bay at the quiet, beachfront end of Hervey Bay.

Waterview cabins and ensuite-equipped sites at peaceful Point Vernon, where beach access, a boat ramp and touring connections are all close at hand.

Nestled in Point Vernon just a short drive from the centre of Hervey Bay, Sunlodge Caravan Park offers single-storey cabins and powered sites with views across the bay. A foreshore walking track brings you to the sand in just a few minutes, and each accommodation option comes with its own private bathroom. Guests can cool off in the swimming pool, fire up the barbecue or use the on-site laundry — everything you need for a comfortable, self-contained stay. Four-legged companions are catered for, with dog-friendly beaches within easy reach. Staff are happy to help you connect with K'gari (formerly Fraser Island) day tours, fishing charters and whale watching experiences during the winter and spring season, and can coordinate pick-ups directly from the park. An adjacent public boat ramp makes launching into Hervey Bay's productive fishing grounds effortless, and local eateries and shopping are only minutes away.

What's the setting like at Sunlodge? Enjoy a small, quiet park straight across from oceanfront parkland at Point Vernon, where you can often spot kangaroos and a wealth of birdlife. Sunrises and sunsets over the water are a local highlight, and an ocean-view walking and cycling path begins nearby.

What facilities and comforts will you have? Cabins and sites are self-contained with air conditioning, fans and private ensuites. On-site you'll find a swimming pool, barbecue area and laundry. Each afternoon, rainbow lorikeets gather around the park — a colourful daily ritual guests look forward to. Staff can advise on tours with convenient pick-ups from the park entrance.

How easy is beach and boat access? Beach access is simple: follow the short track across the foreshore park to the sand. If you're bringing a tinny or kayak, a sheltered public boat ramp sits adjacent to the park, giving quick access to some of Hervey Bay's favourite fishing grounds.

Is Sunlodge well located for exploring Hervey Bay? Yes. The heart of Hervey Bay is roughly a ten-minute drive away, with a local takeaway about a kilometre from the park and the main shopping centre a little further. From here it's easy to join K'gari day tours, fishing trips and seasonal whale watching, all with courtesy pick-ups.
