Yes, thats what we are seeing in the very unfriendly coastal towns as we head south. Fortunately we dont want to stay in these places and just drive thru. A lovely rest area in Bowen, across from the Tourist Info Centre was the centre of atention when they actually fined travellers who had overnighted in this "Day Time Only" spot. $2000. I spoke to the people at the info centre and mentioned that they were very RV Unfriendly. They pointed out that there were plenty of caravan parks for us to stay in or we could head out of town to a farm stay where we could pay $10 to stay in a paddock next to the farm stay. Didnt bother just wouldnt stay in these sort of towns.
We did camp up by a lovely billabong just past Sarina. Very friendly Cafe. Opened up a camp spot. Spend anything at the Cafe and your $5 camping fee is waived
. With home made fruit icecream and pies to die for. It was easy to cover our $5 camp fee.
Sounds like a mixed bag of friendly and unfriendly. Love the photo of the lily pads. A bit like a Monet painting.
