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.
Looks absolutely amazing. Loved it..thank you 👌🏻
What an amazing time you all had - a trip to remember forever. Thanks for sharing
Excellent first flathead from your new boat. 👍
Great episode and the camping on the beach front is just beautiful - and what a flatty - looking forward to the next episode
So jealous 😍
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.
Sweeeeeeet....great to see the kids and you guys again...live the dream for us....
Bec, you’re an AWESOME DANCER🤩
Good dancing Bec! 💃🏿💃🏿. Awesome spot too
That's how we have our roast on the webber too, awsome camping spot. You guys are on to it👍
Another great episode guys. My list of places to go is growing, thanks ! Can’t wait to escape lockdown and join you!
Congrats Justin & Bec, what a great upbringing you guys are giving your kids, outdoor education, priceless, love it !!
what an awesome flatty! Great catch.
My new holiday destination thanx guys. Love your work 👌🏾

Just love your adventures it reminds me of when my Dad would take my brothers and I camping and fishing all over NSW, then when we got older my eldest brother and I would travel all over the east coast fishing those were the days now in my retirement years I have decided to do the big lap next year with my partner.
Great to see you guys enjoying Nature again ♥️

Great video guys, we went to Moreton Island last christmas. It was in my opinion also a hidden gem, since everybody wants to go to Fraser. But Moreton Island was even better. Less crowds and more shipwrecks to explore! Keep up the nice videos, greetings from Germany. We hope to come back for another 3 months next year in March!
Never stop trying. Great video
Great moves Becc .... loved the island and the drone footage as usual ... kids riding their bikes makes me want too do that !! Fishing meh .... but love how enthusiastic you are !! .....as always 👏👍😁
Beautiful photos of the night stars and what a breathtaking sunset. Thank you, Bec and Justin for sharing your adventure on Curtis island at the campsite Joey Lees.
Excellent videos guys, my 6 year old daughter loves watching!
amazing family......... loads of love !!!

You say you’ve been told your a terrible fisherman, but I have to say you are up there with the best of them when it comes to being a Dad, those kids of yours are a credit to you both and the things they have done on a day to day basis, are things some can only dream of! Brilliant

Hi Guys, It's a fair way from us out in the middle of Oz, 5 months on the road has seen us pull into Daly Waters, a far cry from our old home in South Aust. Hope you are having as much fun as us. Anton & Tania
I love how excited you get Justin when you arrive at camp, we are the same! A gorgeous spot is even more beautiful when you’re there on your own:)
