Torquay Beachfront Tourist Park: Absolute Beachfront Camping in Hervey Bay

Imagine waking up to the gentle sound of waves and the breathtaking sight of the sun rising over the Pacific Ocean, right from your caravan or campsite. At Torquay Beachfront Tourist Park, this idyllic scene is your daily reality. Perfectly positioned on the Esplanade in the vibrant heart of Hervey Bay, our park offers an unparalleled location for the ultimate coastal holiday. We are the premier choice for travellers who want to immerse themselves in the lifestyle of this famous Queensland destination, with direct access to one of the calmest and safest swimming beaches on the Fraser Coast.

Our park is designed for convenience and relaxation. Choose from our highly sought-after powered beachfront sites to get as close to the water as possible, or select a comfortable non-beachfront powered site just a few steps away. The central location means you can leave the car parked and explore everything Torquay has to offer on foot. Across the road, you’ll discover a fantastic selection of alfresco cafes, boutique shops, and diverse restaurants to suit every taste and budget. The famous 14-kilometre Esplanade pathway runs directly past our entrance, inviting you to enjoy a morning walk, a scenic cycle, or a leisurely rollerblade along the stunning foreshore.

While the location is a key attraction, our facilities ensure your stay is comfortable and hassle-free. The park features clean amenity blocks, a well-equipped camper’s kitchen and recreation room, laundry facilities, and a convenient dump point for RVs. Our friendly on-site team can provide tour information, helping you book an unforgettable whale watching tour or a trip to the magnificent K’gari (formerly Fraser Island). Whether you’re casting a line from the nearby Torquay Jetty, enjoying a family picnic in the adjacent park, or simply relaxing by the water’s edge, Torquay Beachfront Tourist Park provides the perfect base for creating lasting holiday memories in beautiful Hervey Bay.
