Perfect beach weather

The weather here in Mission Beach is perfect for a day at the beach . It's not too hot, not too cold, the sun is shining and there is a lovely breeze. I'm thinking I might pop down there for a relaxing picnic lunch after work.

The sun is shining again

Yeah, the sun is shining again in Mission Beach. We are very excited as the cloudy sky and rain has been hanging around for a week or so now. I was walking along Wongaling Beach to South Mission Beach this morning and it was so nice to feel the warmth of the sun on my head.......that's what we like!

Happy Birthday

One of my friends here in Mission Beach is having a birthday today, she has now joined the 30's club, good on her and I hope she has a fabulous day.

Friends are visiting

I have some friends from down south visiting Mission Beach for the week. A bit of a shame that they have arrived to some wet weather, but that hasn't stopped them as they have headed off to Kuranda on the Scenic Railway coming back on the Skyrail. We here at the Mission Beach Information Station can help you to book this fun day trip.

Tropical Palms Inn

Magnetic Island's Tropical Palms Inn provides comfortable self contained units in a garden setting just 100 metres from Picnic Bay Beach, hotel, jetty and childrens playground. It is only a short walk to the Golf Club. Located at the quiet end of the Island it is the perfect place to chill out and relax. There is plenty to see and do without having to rush around.

It's been a while

I had some visitors to Mission Beach come in this afternoon. They were amazed at the changes to town as they have not been here since 1983. Its still as perfect now as it was then!

Scootering Mission Beach

After scootering around Magnetic Island on the weekend and having a fantastic time I think I will definitely be buying a scooter in the near future to zip around Mission Beach on. So much fun! So economical!!

Mission Beach Information Station

You may not know this but the staff in the Mission Beach Information Station can help you with any tour bookings from Cooktown to Byron Bay. Today I booked a Whitsunday boat trip from Airlie Beach, whale watching in Hervey Bay and Fraser Island 2 day tour, all for the one traveller. She thought it was fantastic because now she doesn't have to waste any holiday time organising it herself. That's what we do here, help you enjoy yourself.

Friends are coming back

It's only 1 more sleep to go before my friends move back to Mission Beach, I am very excited about that I can tell you. Plus I have friends from Victoria coming to visit as well, what a big day its going to be, many a drink could be consumed I think.

Greyhound & Premier bus passes

Remember if your travelling south and planning to visit places like Magnetic Island, the Whitsundays, Fraser Island and Byron Bay to name a few, then its a good idea to buy a Greyhound or Premier bus pass. Its cheaper and allows you to jump on and off at your leisure. Come in to the Mission Beach Information Station and we will tell you all about them.

Magnetic Island

I am driving from Mission Beach this coming weekend. Going to hire a scooter (only$35.00 for the day) and checkout the length and breadth of the Island. Its been 7 years since I have been there. I reckon if I didn't live in Mission Beach my next choice would be' Maggie'. I just love it there!!

Lots of visitors in town

I have had a busy morning so far with visitors to Mission Beach wanting to know what to do today as there is a bit of wet weather around. I have sent people to the Tully Sugar Mill for a tour, a drive into the Tablelands to check out the waterfalls and fig trees and off to Mena Creek to visit Paronella Park. All great options I think.

White Water Rafting

If your in Mission Beach or Cairns and are keen to go White Water Rafting, then the good news is that all the maintenance is done on the river and the rafts are back out there....so contact us here at the Mission Beach Information Station and we will help you make it happen!
