We stopped for a few days at Cape Hillsborough caravan park with our mates Wazz and Megs. This place gets a lot of backpackers through as it has kangaroos on the beach at sunrise. It actually felt like we were living in Germany. The funny thing is that the park feeds the kangaroos seeds every morning on the beach, hence creating there own tourist gimmick.
We put the boat in here twice, once to fish and again to get the crab pots. We struck out both times unfortunately, but Wazz picked up a big Spanish mackerel at his secret spot.
