Coconut and mango curry at Cape Gloucester Resort

Queensland Coast 2023

We took a day trip out through Dingo Beach, over OMG Hill to Cape Gloucester Resort in Hideaway Bay. What a beautiful spot. Delicious coconut and mango curry with little naan breads seemed perfect with the tropical sunset.

Charging

On the return trip, we took the opportunity to charge up at the newish Evie Networks charger on the Bruce Highway near Proserpine. It has two chargers (which makes a huge difference to statistical accessibility), and they are at least twice as fast as the 50kW Yurika charger in the town. Frustratingly, the front gate to the Whitsunday Visitor Information Centre is closed after 3pm when the Whitsunday Gold Coffee cafe there is closed, which means that this fuel stop is most often inaccessible 🤦. There is a side entrance to the car park, with just a few traffic cones. We moved the cones temporarily, charged, then headed back to our accommodation in Shute Harbour.

  3. I hear there's some sort of festival at Airlie Beach this weekend. Just thought I'd mention it, seeing you're up here. :)

    1. Evert Numan Thanks. Yeah, we noticed the signs a week ago. We left Hamilton Island through Airlie today, on our way back south, but didn’t see any of the actual festival.
