Great destinations for your winter caravanning holiday
Travelling in winter is often cheaper, so get your caravan on the road in the cooler months.

Just because the weather is cooler doesn’t mean you can't enjoy yourself. A winter caravan trip is every bit as special, as you don’t have the heat of summer, but rather can enjoy the heat of a campfire instead. Caravan park and camping fees are generally also cheaper and tourist prices in retail stores fall in popular towns.
Here are two Queensland destinations and three interstate destinations to consider if you’re planning to get on the road to enjoy the cooler months.
Adventure Whitsunday Resort, Airlie Beach, Qld
The Big4 Adventure Whitsunday Resort is a stand-out at Airlie Beach. There is plenty of choice in terms of accommodation, with condos, cottages and villas on offer, as well as caravan and camping sites. It's family-friendly and facilities include a 32m lagoon pool, a 13-slide water park, adventure playgrounds, jumping pillows and mini-golf. There are shared BBQ facilities, too, which are ideal if you'd like to socialise with fellow travellers.

Albany Gardens Holiday Park, Albany, WA
Whale season arrives on the west coast with the winter months and runs through to the end of October. Albany is one of the great places to catch the humpbacks cruising by during their annual migration.
