We have found paradise.....

  

Finally..the weather was the typical Queensland weather we all imagined...blue sky and a perfect temperature. The girls spotted an awesome playground as we passed through Gympie, and it just happened to be right next to the tourist information. With no plans of where we were going to camp the night we went in to get some information on the area. Rainbow beach was a place that they did point out, basic bush camping on the beach - something that appealed to us so we decided to check it out for the night.

 The township of Rainbow Beach is a small village,with the Great Sandy National Park surrounding it, we camped at the Inskip point section on pelican bay. Right on the water which the girls had loads of fun swimming, playing in the sand and chasing crabs at low tide.
And yes there was also time for school work, what better place to have your classroom than on the beach.
The sand dunes in the National Park were amazing, this photo does not show just how massive and spectacular these dunes are. After spending a few days enjoying this area, Rainbow Beach will be going on our list of favourite places.
