Car Hire and Rockhampton Airport Mini Guide
Rockhampton Airport is found just five kilometres to the west of the city and is a busy domestic airport serving flights from several Australian airports with the largest number of routes being to and from Brisbane. Rockhampton, locally known as ‘Rocky’, is one of the oldest cities in Queensland at over 150 years old. The city was founded near the mouth of the Fitzroy River and has over 300 sunny days a year making it an attractive destination for tourists. It developed after the discovery of gold in the area and as the gold dried up, services took its place.
Around the city there are several interesting geological formations which can be visited by tourists including the Mount Etna Caves National Park and Capricorn Caves. The city lies virtually on the Tropic of Capricorn and a spire marks the rough location of the Tropic in the city. At the summer solstice, the spire is said to point directly up at the overhead sun although with the continuous variation in the tilt of the earth, the tropic actually lies a kilometre further north at the moment. Rockhampton was established in 1855 making it one of the oldest cities in Australia. If you’ve hired a car, a worthwhile way to spend an afternoon is to visit the heritage village living museum where recreations of buildings from the time of its inception along with the tools and machinery of the industry of the time are on display.
