Located between Rockhampton and Emu Park beach. 711 Thompson Point Road Nankin Our campsites are located in a rural setting with plenty of shady trees, friendly cows and mountain views close to the Fitzroy River. Relax around a campfire on a peaceful dam and listen to the kookaburras. Dip your toes into the cool water whilst sipping watching the sunset. It is 10km to the upgraded Fitzroy River/Thompson Point boat ramp and pontoon. Enjoy some excellent fishing and crabbing on the river, bird watching and bush walking up the many hills. Only 1/2 hr. drive to the beaches (Emu Park and Yeppoon), National Parks (Mt Etna Caves, Mt Archer Baga, Limestone Creek), and Rockhampton (Kershaw Gardens and Rockhampton Free Zoo).

Great bush camp
A great site to experience bush camping with only the most basic of facilities, we were in a motorhome so didn't need to try the single soil toilet! Lots of birdlife to look at and amazing starlit skies

Beautiful site
Beautiful site, so peaceful, and private. As a solo traveller I felt super safe. Lovely dry wood for fires and just an overall wonderful stay. Highly recommend. Also loved the company of the horse and calf who came to say hi!
