Recommended Stops in Northern Queensland

Posted by: tippecanoe on Jun 24, 12 at 03:53 PM Posted in: Australia & the Pacific Tagged: Jump to last reply

We have five days to drive between Mackay and Port Douglas this November. Does anyone have any recommended stops or nice hotels along the way? We're already planning to spend a night in Charters Towers. We've arranged a trip to the Great Barrier Reef during our stay in Port Douglas, so I'm not sure whether it makes sense to see the Whitsunday Islands or to spend time elsewhere. Any ideas are appreciated.
