  2. Gladstone Airport

Gladstone has a thriving heavy industrial heart reliant on mineral processing but don’t let that put you off. A hire car from Gladstone Airport will soon have you out past the factories and into the beautiful Queensland scenery which includes the largest natural harbour in Australia and Auckland Point.

Why do People Travel to Gladstone?
Some people will be interested in the huge mineral industry which may put others off visiting the city. However, with a hire car at Gladstone Airport, you can use the city as a base and leave it all behind on days out to beautiful Lake Awoomba where you can picnic, barbecue, enjoy sports facilities on the lake or just soak up the sun. If you prefer the sea, Boyne Island nearby has fabulous beaches and clean seas and you’ll also find the same at Tannum Sands.

What’s Gladstone Airport Like?
The airport is small, despite having nearly completed an upgrade, extension and refurbishment. It’s brightly painted, like a toy superstore, but is bright and organised inside. Routes only operate from Queensland’s regional airports and from the state capital, Brisbane. Travellers from outside the state would do best to fly to Brisbane and connect from there. The airport can’t take big planes so the maximum size is usually around eighty passengers on turboprop planes.

Transfers into the town are by bus or taxi with car hire at Gladstone Airport also being popular. The facilities are very limited at the moment with no shops and only a bistro café serving hot and cold food and drinks. Newspapers are also sold from the café along with pre-bagged snacks and drinks.
