Seaforth Camping Reserve


Seaforth is a quaint beachfront town that is also one of the most popular recreational fishing destinations in the Mackay region.

It is the ideal location to launch a boat to explore the beautiful Newry Island group, via the boat ramp at Victor Creek.

The camping grounds are located right on the edge of the beach with amazing ocean views.
