Welcome to the Mackay
Region
Rainforest, mountains, gorges,
estuarine streams, beaches,
islands and the Great Barrier Reef
are just some of the attractions
of Mackay.
The weather is superb all year
round in this tropical region -
temperatures in the warmer months
range from 22 to 30c and winter
temperatures range from 12 to
22°c. The waters temperature of
the region vary from 20 to
24°c.
There are some nice beaches where
the rainforest grows right up to
the waters edge, and waters sports
are a main feature of Mackay. Just
a short boat ride away you have
beautiful islands with their own
beaches.
Past the islands is the Great
Barrier Reef and you may visit the
reef on a day trip to experience
the unique beauty of this natural
wonder.
