We rented a beachfront cabin, so we were able to see the ocean from our room, bought bait onsite and did a little fishing off the fenced wall right outside our door. Not sure on public transport, but glad we had our car to get to shops and explore Bowen and surrounds. Cabin was comfortable and clean and a good size for 3

    Loved our new accommodation located in Rose Bay and the people and visitors there. Saw whales off shore. Businesses not far away for essentials and takeaway food. The view from the lookout on Flagstaff Hill is amazing and gives a full 360 degree view of Bowen and the surrounding area. It's so easy to navigate Bowen but Google maps makes it so much easier.

    People we met in the town of Bowen were friendly and helpful. Bowen Hotel restaurant was very good. Bakery was excellent. Bowen is a nice town, with nice people. Shame that the Ocean Views Motel wasn't. We wouldn't return to that motel.

    Bowen is a small town in an amazing location surrounded by very picturesque beaches and very little traffic. It has a long jetty where you can walk and see dugongs, stingrays, sea turtles, fishes, and surrounding islands. It has many good restaurants to eat in and fresh seafood shops alongside Woolworths, IGA, Kmart hub and chemists. It is a 2 hr drive up to Townsville and 1 hr drive to Airlie Beach and Shute Harbor for amazing reef trips, and just 1 hr to Proserpine Airport. The stay here is very relaxing and prices for accommodation reasonable. It is a great place for families.

    Desperately needs a decent taxi service.

    Desperately needs a decent taxi service. I was visiting friends which was hard enough. Would never recommend as a holiday destination basically due to lack of tansport options. Couldn't even enjoy a couple of glasses of wine together over dinner :-(

    Most underrated beach destination in Australia. Pure heaven!

    Most underrated beach destination in Australia. Pure heaven! The area around Greys Bay and Horseshoe is just perfect, could happily stay a week. Very hot in the middle of the day in summer though so have some plans for indoor activities for then.

    Fair selection of places to dine.

    Fair selection of places to dine. Jochheim's Pies live up to their reputation of best pies around, and ham/salad rolls are amazing. Birds' Fish and Chips very good with lovely outlook over the marina. Love walking the tracks around Queens, Horsehoe and Rose Bays. History Museum is worth a visit, volunteers very obliging to answer any queries.

    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.
