Awesome Campers is an all Aussie owned campervan hire company aimed at the budget market, with branches all over the country. Their name is quite enticing, but are they really awesome?
Townsville is a large regional town on the coast of far north Queensland. It is a great spot to stop off and re-supply the campervan and you can spend a day checking out the sights that are there, however it is not a tourist destination in its own right. Townsville has a population of about 160,000 making it the 13th largest city in Australia and the 4th largest in Queensland. The town has a significant sized military bas as well as an active port. There is a nice beachside boardwalk however swim at your own risk as a 4.7m crocodile was caught there in February of 2016 - yes, you are in the land of crocs and stingers when you are this far north.
At the time of writing there was only 1 campervan hire company with a branch in Townsville, so if you are not wanting to complete the long haul drive further north to Cairns from here, it is suggested you hire from them.
