Set your sights on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast for a five day road trip made for two. This route pairs golden beaches with lush hinterland, laid back coastal towns with rainforest waterfalls, and sunrise headland walks with evening strolls. Keep the driving short and sweet, soak up the scenery at a slower pace, and enjoy camp-friendly overnight stays that put you close to nature. Autumn and spring bring comfortable temperatures and fewer crowds, making them ideal for this coastal escape. If you are also eyeing a future detour south to Byron Bay, the same seasons are wonderfully comfortable there too. Time your travel between June and October for your best chance of humpback whale sightings, with some cruises extending into November on the Sunshine Coast. Pick up your Apollo 2WD camper in Brisbane and settle into a relaxing rhythm of beach walks, hinterland picnics, markets, bakeries, and easy hikes. The route follows sealed roads and avoids beach driving, so it is perfectly suited to a 2WD campervan. 

Rolling ocean, pristine white-sand bays and lush rainforest make the New South Wales South Coast a dreamy escape for two. This five day round trip from the Apollo Sydney branch blends slow coastal drives, easy walks, cycling, picnics, and local bakeries with time to truly unwind. Autumn and spring are ideal, with comfortable temperatures and clear days that suit kayaking, hiking and long beach strolls. Travel in an Apollo 2WD campervan keeps things flexible and relaxed, and with driving limited to around three hours or less per day you will have more time for swims, sunset lookouts and shared plates at seaside eateries. Whale watching is a seasonal highlight from May to November along this coast, and calm mornings in Jervis Bay are perfect for a couples’ paddle. Stick to sealed roads, avoid beach driving, and prebook national park camping where required. 

Ancient headlands, white-sand beaches and turquoise bays make the New South Wales Sapphire Coast a dream for a campervan escape.

Expect wildlife-rich waters, coastal walks and fresh local produce at every turn. Spring is a standout time to go thanks to mild weather and whale migrations, while summer brings long beach days and warm evenings. With short driving days and memorable overnight stays, this itinerary is designed for easy days behind the wheel and plenty of time to explore.

Swap city buzz for misty valleys, sandstone cliffs, and eucalyptus-scented air on this slow, scenic couples escape from Sydney to the Blue Mountains. Designed for an Apollo 2WD campervan, this five day loop sticks to sealed roads and keeps drives under three hours, leaving more time for sunrise lookouts, gentle hikes, mountain picnics, and cosy village eats. Spring and autumn are ideal for this journey, with comfortable temperatures, blooming wildflowers, and fiery foliage creating a beautiful backdrop. Start and finish at Apollo’s Sydney branch, then meander to Katoomba, Blackheath, and Oberon via the Blue Mountains Botanic Garden, Mount Tomah, with an optional detour to the Jenolan Caves. Take it slow, savour the views, and let each day unfold at a relaxed pace – this is the perfect long weekend getaway for two.
