With sandstone wilderness to the west and the Southern Great Barrier Reef to the east, the heart of Gladstone City is blessed with the best of both worlds, not to mention perfect sailing conditions.
Get your bearings
Kick-start the morning with a coffee and cruise of the harbour and walk to Auckland and Round Hill lookouts for 360-degree city views.
