Cape Gloucester
A Coastal Pocket on the Fringe of the Whitsundays
Cape Gloucester is as laid-back as it is undiscovered. Here, you can gaze out over the Coral Sea, enjoy beachfront dining at either of Cape Gloucester’s two resorts or simply soak up a coastline that feels almost entirely your own.
The Cape Gloucester from Bowen drive follows the north coast before winding inland into quieter, more secluded country. Sealed roads and an easy route make it a popular day trip to Cape Gloucester for travellers chasing a relaxed escape without venturing too far off the beaten track.
Highlights
Once you arrive, Cape Gloucester QLD invites you to slow down, take a breath and get your bathers on. Expect relaxed beachfront accommodation and direct access to calm, swimmable waters. All that’s left to do is wake to uninterrupted ocean views and spend the day drifting between beach walks, stand-up paddleboarding and deciding which nearby island you’d like to hop to next.
