Nobody about. Sunny skies in August. National Park in the background. Pretty close to paradise I think. Seaforth has a camping grounds which means you can stay in this little slice of heaven for only $25 per night. Bargain! Great for a cheap winter #weekendgetaway

Seaforth

Easily the BEST campsite in this region of Queensland. We only booked two nights and regretted it. Could have easily spent a week here! This was the view from our private access to Smalleys Beach from our campsite. No trickery, this is the actual view! We are not professional photographers, this is nature at its finest. Be sure to pre-book your campsite as this campgrounds fills up (easy to see why). During summer you cannot swim in the water due to the Marine Stingers in North Queensland, however from May - October you are safe to enjoy these pristine waters.
