EAT A GIANT MANGO IN BOWEN AND SURROUNDS ROAD TRIP AUSTRALIA
a fresh creamy mango sorbet -just like icecream?
Bowen Road Trip Australia
The town is halfway between Townsville and Mackay. A tropical town in the Whitsunday area of North Queensland. Away from the foreshore the town looked hot and dry. Almost drought like. It was the dry season. Population of over ten thousand people. Stayed a night in the Whitsunday Sands Resort. Excellent scenic beach frontage. The resort is on the foreshore. Palm trees and coconut trees. A few coconuts were found dropped on the ground. By the look of the outside, the coconuts all were unfit to eat. Apparently if the shell appears to be mouldy or there are dark spots on the coconut shell it is unsafe to eat.
Big Mango Attraction
Bowen is the home of the Big Mango. A ten metre high structure. Raw mangos have a sour taste. However as they ripen they taste sweet and fruity. A creamy mango sorbet (no dairy ingredients) is usually available onsite. A sherbet or an ice-cream is also available.
Airlie Beach is one hundred and fifty km north of Mackay and eighty km south of Bowen. There is ferry access to nearby Hamilton Island and Daydream Island. All a part of The Great Barrier Reef.
