Rockhampton<\/strong> is not only a major tourist destination, it\u2019s also the perfect place for travelers to restock, recharge, and prepare for their next adventure. Strategically located halfway along the Queensland Pacific Coast Way<\/strong>, Rockhampton also serves as a gateway connecting the Queensland Outback to the coast. See why it\u2019s a prime stop for explorers?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oh\u2014and did we mention it\u2019s the beef capital of Australia and steeped in rich history and culture?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But without a doubt, what we loved most about Rockhampton was its surroundings. The city lies just 40 kilometers from the Capricorn Coast, home to our favorite island paradise: Great Keppel Island<\/strong>. It’s also framed by forests and mountains<\/strong> like the Berserker Ranges and Mt Archer. Nature is very much alive here, with nearby gems like Blackdown Tableland and Byfield National Parks<\/strong>, and the scenic Yeppoon coast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
