I CAN'T BELIEVE WE GOT OUR CARAVAN HERE!!! Curtis Island beach camping & fishing | Season 2 - Ep3

Welcome back to Episode 3, Season 2 of Roadtrip Australia!
Wow - This place is just crazy!! We pack up the van and take her off-shore to an Amazing beach camp called Joey Lees...
Curtis Island is located off the Town of Gladstone on the QLD coast. We have driven up and down the Qld coast several times and never made it over here. This time we made the effort to do some research and get the Curtis Ferry service over and stay for a week on the beach!
It is beautiful over here, the sunrise and sunsets are to die for and the beaches are just perfection.
Loads of info in this video to help you plan your own trip to beach camping paradise!!!
We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we loved exploring here. Drop your comments and questions for us below and we'll help ya out.
Cheers - Justin & Bec

Our most watched Episode - z • BEACH CAMPS ON THE NIN...
It all started when…
In December 2015 we packed up and hit the road for what we thought would be a 12 month Lap of Oz. Fast forward 4 years and we decided to create a video series of our travels to show you all what it’s like to live life on the road!!

    My old man would take me over there in the early 80s and we would camp in an old beachcombers hut. The ‘rent’ was you had to leave something there for the next guy. The cost of getting Dad’s Sukuki Sierra over on a private barge was a bottle of bundy and the latest newspaper. Got plenty of pig, scrub turkey and duck shooting in as a young fella not much older than yours. You are doing a magnificent job mate and your kids will never forget.

    I stumbled across your channel while trying to find Land Cruiser Overlanding vids. So many of them here in America are Jeeps, and I can’t stand to watch those. Or, so many people that are Overlanding are single or just a couple. Not very challenging at all compared to doing it with a family. I can’t imagine all of the work it takes to do this with a family of 5 and make videos while doing it. Well done! Please keep it up. I’m trying to get my wife more into it, and it’s channels like yours that help inspire her. Your vids make me want to move to Australia. So beautiful and inspiring.
