After Mission beach we headed back to the farm for a few days, onto my sisters in Kuttabul for a few more and then started the journey back home. We decided on Yeppoon, a seaside town near Rockhampton mostly because our new nephew in law who is golf mad said their course was in great nick.
We found a great little campsite at the pony club which was only about 10mins from the beach but with plenty of room, so far so good! Day one we headed to the foreshore and were blown away by how beautiful it was. There is a lovely park and walking track along the front and then the beach stretches for kilometres. The area around is quite hilly and there are some dramatic cliff faces as well. The little township reminded us both of what the Sunshine Coast used to be like about 20 years ago.
We walked Griffy down the beach everyday and either played golf or hit the driving range as well. The course definitely lived up to our expectations with beautiful greens and challenging fairways due to lots of trees. Unfortunately for me, my golf game is in a bit of trouble and Tim beat me again. Hence the driving range sessions as it is driving me crazy! Yeppoon has been a gem of a stop and one we will definitely revisit in the future. S
