CAMPING.  James Sharp Memorial Park is a family bush camping site situated 4km from the township of Canungra. Sharp Park River Bend Country Bush Camping has five hectares of managed and well maintained camping and recreational grounds set amongst the hills on the Upper Coomera River. Kids will have fun swimming or throwing in a fishing line. Septic toilets on site, solar shower available on request. Campfire facilities and fire wood also available but please also bring your own. Pets are welcome though must be contained at all times. Mount Tamborine, Lamington National Park, Killarney Glen, O'Reilly's and Binna Burra Resorts are just a few places to visit for day trips. Sharp Park is a peaceful bush camp with a country feeling.
