RV TRAVEL
Harpoon relic from the Tangalooma Whaling Station days .
Brisbane has to be luckiest city in Australia , with access to some of the best sand islands on the planet , all anchored right off the coastline . Let everyone else flock to Fraser Island while you quietly slip off to Moreton ( Mulgumpin ) Island .
If your RV setup is anything other than an offroad camper trailer , leave it on the mainland and go with a tent . Or you can hire a camper trailer on the island . Determine what you want out of a campground , and how far you are willing to tow a trailer through sand , and then pick a camping area .
MORETON ISLAND CAMPGROUNDS
All campgrounds and zones , other than the Wrecks , allow camper trailers . For those who are tenting it and don ’ t need to be adjacent to their vehicle , the Wrecks Campground , where the Micat ferry offloads its passengers on the beach , is perfect .
This is closest to the Tangalooma Wrecks , a cluster of rusting barges and dredges sunk there to create safe anchorage and an artificial reef .
North of the Wrecks Campground ( 1.4km ) is the Ben-Ewa Campground and ranger station . Vehicle-based tent camping is permitted and there are sites for camper trailers .
Cape Moreton Lighthouse .
If you want to camp at the Comboyuro Campground , near Bulwer , camper trailers must be towed up the Cowen Cowen Bypass and then along the beach to Bulwer and then Comboyuro , a drive that must be timed around a low tide . This is also the North-West Zone .
The North Point Campground , 22km from the
Micat drop-off , also has camper trailer sites ,
