Capricorn Coast Attractions
Whatever experience you are seeking, the Capricorn Coast has it all. Step back in time to our heritage and culture at Rockhampton's Dreamtime Centre and Heritage Village which are linked by a 300 metre track offering horse and carriage and vintage car rides. Just north of Rockhampton are the award winning limestone Capricorn Caves which offer restaurant facilities, pool, interactive displays and bush walks.
For animal lovers, visit the fascinating and educational Koorana Crocodile Farm, home to 3000 crocodiles. Try crocodile pie in the restaurant and in the early months of the year watch baby crocodiles hatch from their eggs! Hold a Koala or hand feed kangaroos at Cooberie Park Sanctuary just north of Yeppoon. For the adventurous try a Capricorn Coast Skydive or fossick for thunder eggs at Mt. Hay Gemstone Park. On Friday and Saturday evenings be entertained over a 3 course meal with licensed bar at the hilariously funny Footlights Restaurant
