Hawkings Point Lookout
Observation deck
👍👍 Absolutely stunning lookout! Very easy to climb in maybe 20 minutes and even more spectacular during sunset.
This is something you can easily do at the end of the day, bringing some snacks onto the top and enjoy the beauty of nature and this island!😀

Kissing Point Fortification
Historical landmark
👍👍 Absolutely the place to visit when visiting yeppoon. Tugs on the heart strings. Lest we forget. Memories abound for the old but not so much for the young but a way to fill in those blanks. This is how it was in 1940’s. Spend the time and have a good look around. Cheers big ears

Nothing better than enjoying your lunch under the canopy of the huge shade trees, and it never feels too hot. A little breeze from the river adds a cooling touch. You get to spot birds, turtles, fish and occa...

Secret beach
Tourist attraction
