Travel: Bluff Point
Bluff Point is a short drive from Kinka Beach in Queensland, Australia. It’s about a 2.5km hike and takes you up the small bluff for a stunning view. Check it out if you’re in the area!

Travel: Cape Hillsborough National Park
Cape Hillsborough National Park is a must see if you’re in Queensland, Australia. It’s full of hikes, beaches, and a clean campground that has kangaroos bouncing around like they own the place!
