Moore Park Beach Holiday Park: Your Tranquil Coastal Escape
Moore Park Beach is a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts. The expansive, flat beach is ideal for long walks, beach cricket, and swimming, with the main area patrolled during school holidays. It’s particularly famous for its fantastic beach fishing, attracting anglers hoping to reel in a catch from the shore. For those with a 4WD, the northern end of the beach provides an exciting opportunity for a drive along the sand. The park itself is proudly pet-friendly, meaning the whole family can join in on the fun. With clean amenities, a camp kitchen, and laundry facilities, all your essential needs are covered. Its convenient location also makes it an excellent base for exploring the wider Bundaberg region, from the famous rum distillery to the turtle encounters at Mon Repos, all while providing a quiet, natural sanctuary to return to at the end of the day. For a holiday that’s all about sun, sand, and serenity, Moore Park Beach Holiday Park is an unbeatable choice.
