What to see in Townsville

Townsville, nestled on Queensland's tropical coast, is a dynamic city where pristine beaches meet the rugged outback. With a lively arts scene, vibrant waterfront and easy access to the Great Barrier Reef, it's a hub of natural beauty and urban charm, offering diverse experiences for visitors.

A cruise to Townsville wouldn't be complete without exploring the nearby Magnetic Island, a tropical paradise just a short ferry ride away. This island, named by Captain Cook in 1770 for its mysterious magnetic effect on his compass, offers a plethora of outdoor activities and natural beauty. Begin your adventure by taking a ferry from Townsville to Magnetic Island, where you can hire a car, scooter or bicycle to explore the island's hidden gems. Hiking enthusiasts can embark on the Forts Walk, a scenic trail that leads to World War II fortifications with panoramic views of the island and the Coral Sea.

Townsville is the gateway to the world-famous Great Barrier Reef, and you can get a fascinating glimpse of this natural wonder at the Reef HQ Great Barrier Reef Aquarium. Located in the heart of the city, this award-winning aquarium offers a unique opportunity to explore the wonders of the reef without getting wet. The highlight of your visit will undoubtedly be the massive living coral reef exhibit, the largest of its kind in the world. Stroll through a glass tunnel and marvel at the vibrant corals, colourful fish and graceful rays swimming all around you. It's a captivating underwater experience that provides a window into the diverse marine ecosystems of the Great Barrier Reef.

Discover Townsville's rich history and vibrant culture at Jezzine Barracks, a historical site turned cultural precinct overlooking the Coral Sea. This scenic location offers a blend of natural beauty and heritage attractions. Explore the Jezzine Barracks Military Museum, which showcases the region's military history, including its role during World War II. You can browse through an impressive collection of artefacts, interactive displays and multimedia exhibits that provide a comprehensive understanding of Townsville's wartime past.
