Croydon is one of the most quaint towns on the Savannah Way, an unforgettable attraction. Once the third largest town in Queensland Croydon was a booming gold mining town that serviced an 18km long gold field producing 23,675kg of gold from 35 years of hard labour. Engage yourself in the wonderful and rich history which this town has to offer. Photographic displays and museum artefacts tell the st
ory of Croydon. Visit the True Blue Visitor Information centre, Iguana Consul Mining Museum, Chinese Temple archaeological site and the well preserved heritage listed historical buildings. Relax and unwind at the Lake Belmore, the largest freshwater impoundment in the Gulf Region where you can fish, enjoy bird watching, barbeque and picnic facilities. There are many great vantage points to enjoy the rich and subtle tones that come alive with an outback sunset. The Croydon Caravan Park offers a comfortable base to explore the historic town and is within walking distance to all travellers' needs. While you are here, take advantage of the wide range of free leisure activities including tennis, lawn bowls and swimming or play the 9-hole golf course with artificial tees and greens. Croydon is truly a breath of fresh air, filled with history and culture that offers you a unique and beautiful outback experience.
