Rollingstone pineapple - yum!
Be a pineapple:
Stand tall, wear a crown and be sweet on the inside!
Where do you find Australia's sweetest and juiciest pineapples? Far North Queensland of course.
With an average of 320 sunshine days a year, Rollingstone just 55kms south of Townsville is the perfect spot for Pace Farm's 200 hectare pineapple plantation. Rows and rows of juicy pineapples, what a wonderful sight.
When visiting Rollingstone make sure you take time to hang out, relax and admire the street art under the shade of the old bridge. Cool off with a quick dip in Rollingstone Creek or if you dare take a flying leap off the bridge!

Take a flying leap!

Further down Rollingstone Creek at the Bushy Park Rest Area you will find some magical, crystal clear swimming holes to dive into. There is a day use area and a free 48 hour, pet friendly camping area.

Quench your thirst at the laid-back Rollingstone Pub, there is even a large jumping pillow to keep the kids entertained.
Visit beautiful Balgal Beach for a relaxing walk around the peninsula. Fisherman's Landing has a great alfresco deck overlooking Rollingstone Creek so you can enjoy the view and some delicious hot chips.
