The Capricorn Coast

The Capricorn Coast is located just above the Tropic of Capricorn. The Capricorn Palms Holiday Village was our venue for 2 relaxing nights. The whole of the Yeppoon area is beautiful, and peaceful. Great Keppel Island is just across the way; hidden away behind the ocean sands and trees is Causeway Lake, and the shopping centre to cater to the tourist and locals, was hopping. Yeppoon is one of those sleepy little hollows often given a miss by the tourist looking for the highlife of Rockhampton but we found it charming, relaxing, friendly and aesthetically pleasing. We didn't do a lot of sightseeing though as we felt in need of a rest and that's exactly what we did. Sitting in the sun, with at a pleasant 25 degree temperature, reading or working through our maps to sort our next port of call. What more could we ask for? Quite lovely really!
