Broadsound Area
Mackay Region, Queensland
COASTAL HISTORY AND COUNTRY TOWNS
The Broadsound area stretches from inland plains to coastal waters, dotted with historic towns like St Lawrence and Clarke Creek. Wander the heritage-listed St Lawrence Wetlands, home to birdlife and walking trails, or time your visit with the popular Wetlands Weekend festival. Head out crabbing or fishing in the estuaries, or explore the old meatworks ruins that hint at the region’s past. It’s peaceful, scenic, and full of old-school outback character with a coastal twist.
