We recently took the kids to Woodgate beach for the afternoon, on the way back to Bundaberg we spotted the sign to Kinkuna National Park and decided to go off road and check it out.  We were quite surprised and had a such a great time I thought I would dedicate this page to the national park.  After about an hour the rain started getting pretty heavy so we decided we would come back another weekend to see more of the national park.  When we revisit the park we will certainly update the page with new pictures.

We have revisited the park and we had a ball, check out these new pictures http://www.boating4x4camping.com.au/the_shed,_pictures_by_brent_roberts.htm you'll find these pictures about 1/2 way down the page.

Kinkuna National Park, just 30 kilometres south of Bundaberg. Part of the Burrum Coast National Park which also incorporates both Woodgate and Burrum River National Park. Kinkuna offers a true coastal wilderness experience for Four Wheel Driving or hiking. Sand tracks lead through the predominantly flat landscape dense with vegetation and along the oceanfront and the beach is also suitable for Four Wheel Driving.

Wilderness camping is permitted in a couple of areas. Campers must be fully self sufficient as there are no facilities at all in the park. Nearest water, food and fuel supplies are at Woodgate Beach or back towards Bundaberg itself. Please check with the Queensland Parks & Wildlife Service for park and track conditions and camping permits. Access into the park for day visits is free, camping requires a permit - available at self registration desks located at either the Bundaberg/Coonarr or Woodgate entrances to the park. Bookings during school holidays and at Christmas are required.

Wet weather certainly makes your off road experience more enjoyable.

The nature lover, 4WDrive enthusiast and fisherman are all catered for here, as are those looking for peace and solitude, all so close to Bundaberg. A track now leads through the native wallum and heath scrub to Woodgate Beach and these parks' beach driving are a great experience!

Enjoy the peace and quiet in this undeveloped section of the park

Kinkuna National Park is renown for its springtime wildflower displays. August to October is the peak time to view these wildflowers here, in Woodgate National Park and also just to the north at the Coonarr Wildflower Reserve.
