Accommodation in Australia can be an expensive for international travellers because of the strong currency. However, Townsville is a lot less touristy than many coastal destinations like Brisbane and Cairns, making it relatively more affordable.
To reach Townsville, take a connecting flight to Townsville Airport (TSV) via Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, or Cairns. The airport is 7 km west of the city…
Hike up Castle Hill – take the short hike to the top of the rocky outcrop which presides 900 feet above the city to drink in the views of the northeastern Australian coastline and Magnetic Island which lies just off shore
