Scott was very kind and welcoming. He let me stay in a private room away from the renovation area instead of the dorm room I booked because I only need it for one night. A good night sleep is really what I need for the long drive next day. I appreciate his kindness.

We love Bowen as it is just down the road from us. We chose to stay at Horseshoe bay carvan park as it is cheap and very close to the beach and cafe. Love the cocktails and food here!! We are dinner and breakfast at the cafe. We don't mind sharing bathrooms ( as we booked the Cabin Van). It's a life lesson for our boys in terms of travelling on a budget. Our Cabin Van was also down the bottom end ( beach) with a view of the beach this time!! When you are down the bottom the closest bathrooms aren't far - you just have to walk through a dirt car park.... not the end of the world. There is also only one shower and 2 toilets, but you can walk up to the main bathrooms if you prefer.

It's not called Blowin' Bowen for nothing!

It's not called Blowin' Bowen for nothing! It was extremely windy, particularly on the beaches. Locals told us it is always windy in Bowen. Horseshoe Bay and Gray Bay are gorgeous and Gray Bay was sheltered. Highly recommend a visit to both beaches. We had a lovely meal at the Bowen Hotel.

We loved the Cape Edgecombe walking trail.

We loved the Cape Edgecombe walking trail. Birds Fish Bar was great for dinner - has a lovely back verandah overlooking the boat harbour. We also really liked Louie's Artisan Cafe for breakfast pastries. We ate at their tables but they don't have a view so if you had more time you could pick up some items and take them to the foreshore to picnic.

Bowen Tavern has awesome staff who found a table for us even though the restaurant was booked out. There is an excellent kids play area that kept our little one excited and entertained while we dined. Beach front has a water park, skate park and playground. The wharfe is always busy and worth a look. There are lots of interesting things around town noting the history of the place. From Bowen town centre, its a short drive to bays where the Great Barrier fringing reef are easily snorkeled - coral and fish of all kinds. This mainland location lets the kids play on the beach, we can eat at the cafe and playgrounds which is a much more cost effective and family friendly Great Barrier reef experience than the boat charters to the heart reef. The fish and chip shop at the wharfe has the best views and beautiful food, playground and bar. Flagstaff hill and 360 are a must see. Can't rate Bowen highly enough. And don't forget to get a photo with the BIG MANGO. :)

Bowen is a beautiful coastal town with amazing beaches and views. Not many interesting shops to browse through but lovely cafes and marina restaurants didn't disappoint. A must do is a visit to the Grandview Hotel. A lovely, historical pub with friendly staff and great food.

Would be better if you had a car.

Would be better if you had a car. Taxis were unreliable , we ate near horseshoe bay one evening and had to get a lift home from a waitress in the restaurant as the taxi did not come back to take us home ( coral hotel ) the staff there were so nice and helpful . Horseshoe bay was lovely .Not a lot going on in town centre when we were there between Xmas and new year .

We had an Ocean View room but not really a view, maybe a glimpse, yet we were so close to the beach. Friendly reception, good service and helpful staff. A hidden gem with easy access to two beaches (Gray Bay Beach and Horseshoe Bay) and walking trails. Sunset was truly divine. Room was clean and tidy and a comfortable bed.

Friendly onsite Managers, pet friendly cabins and the entire property was the best maintained tourist park we have visited in years. Each site is private with manicured hedges on 3 sides and trees for shade. We will definitely be back.
