Townsville is the centre of research for the Great Barrier Reef, both at AIMS (Australian Institute of Marine Science) and James Cook University. Visitors can see and make their own underwater discoveries on dive tours to the reefs off Townsville. They include guided diving tours of the S.S. Yongala shipwreck – one of the world’s great dive experiences. See the wreck and the corals that formed and the fish and marine life that inhabit the relics of the Yongala.

You can learn to dive, take a guided snorkel tour or a guided dive on a wreck with tours and courses available at Magnetic Island. There’s more fun in the waters around Magnetic Island with half-day tours that take you by boat to secluded beaches and picturesque bays to go snorkelling, fishing and exploring.

Charters Towers is around a 90 minutes drive inland from Townsville. This heritage town with its grand colonial buildings including a theatre and stock exchange that once operated 24 hours a day, was the centre of a bustling gold rush with Charters Towers known as ‘The World’. You can discover the history of the gold rush on a heritage walking tour or step into another world with the Virtual Reality guided walking tour.

Townsville is a perfect base for exploring some of the highlights of Tropical North Queensland. Let Visit Queensland help you discover this enticing part of the Sunshine State.
