Things to do in Townsville

One of the most remarkable places to visit not too far from Townsville itself is the Tyto Wetlands.

Here you will encounter a rich abundance of tropical birds and scenic lagoons. Further inland, the famous Undara Lava Tubes are a real wonder of nature.

They are of the longest and best preserved in the world – just another reason why you shouldn’t pass up this chance!

If you are looking for that touch of nature within the city limits, you can always visit the Anderson Park Botanical Gardens where admission is free and you can get a close look at all the amazing specimens on display.

The buttressed fig tree is 40m in circumference and is situated in the Broadwater Forest State Park.

Get those hiking shoes ready and take a 2km scenic stroll through the woods and get a load of this forest giant!

The Aussie experience wouldn’t be complete without a good old wild animal sanctuary visit.

The Billabong Wildlife Sanctuary is just 17km from Townsville itself and is home to both fauna and flora native to Australia.

Get ready to meet some crocs, kangaroos, birds as well as slithering serpents!

Feel free to pack a picnic lunch and make yourself right at home! 

If you’re planning to explore much further afield with a road trip south to Brisbane or perhaps further north then across to Darwin, checkout your one way rental car options which will allow you to drop off your vehicle at any airport or rental car depot around Australia, rather than having to return to Townsville Airport to hand back your vehicle.

Either way, enjoy all the natural wonders that Townsville has to offer and make sure you take day trips to nearby Airlie Beach in the south and up to Port Douglas in the north which offer stunning landscapes and views over crystal clear waters.
