Spend a day on the sand at Harbour Beach, explore the unique rainforest of Eungella National Park to spot wild platypus, or take a short trip to the historic village of Finch Hatton.
Mackay suits travelers looking for a relaxed base to explore nature, from families to couples and solo adventurers. The city centre is compact and walkable, with most hotels and services close to the Pioneer River.
