Explore Southport’s marine wildlife and majestic waterfalls on an epic caravan camping trip.
Southport, a coastal town on Australia’s Gold Coast, offers caravan campers a variety of accommodations within an easy distance of renowned parks and sanctuaries. Venture into the ancient Gondwana Rainforests of Springbrook National Park, where the Warrie circuit leads campers through a realm of waterfalls, including the renowned Twin Falls. Then, look out for rare bird species like the Albert's lyrebird in the canopies. Holiday parks nearby provide caravan-friendly sites with flush toilets and riverside views, while farther out, the Seaway Dive Site promises snorkelling with a chance to glide alongside schools of mulloway and watchful rays. Holiday parks near the dive site ensure a family-friendly stay with amenities like camp kitchens and heated pools. At Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary, caravanners can interact with more native wildlife, including koalas and lively kangaroos, while staying at a private caravan site that’s pet-friendly with access to toilets. With Southport’s mild winters and warm, sun-filled summers, caravan campers can enjoy these destinations year-round.
