Brampton Island Resort, Mackay

I really liked Brampton Island. It was secluded, yet still quite close to the mainland. Even though it was a resort island it had all different types of animals: kangaroos, iguanas, all sorts of birds and a great assortment of sea creatures. It was a bit spendy per night, but the experience was incredible. The only part of the trip was getting there. You must take a 50 minute boat ride, and for those of you who don't do so well with the tossing waters you might opt to pay for a plane ride there. The food was excellent and the evening entertainment was spectacular. I highly recommend the resort.
