Jowarra Park

The snippets describe Jowarra Park as a rest area/free camp on Steve Irwin Way, not specifically on the Mooloolah River as a campground. However, the available information is sufficient to describe the POI meaningfully.

Jowarra Park Rest Area is a free overnight camping spot on the Sunshine Coast of Queensland, situated on Steve Irwin Way just south of the Caloundra turn-off on the Bruce Highway.

It is managed by Sunshine Coast Council, which permits overnight camping at the site. The rest area is a popular stop for backpackers and camper van travellers, offering grassy open space with room for multiple vehicles.

Its central location makes it a practical base for visiting nearby attractions including the Glasshouse Mountains and Caloundra. The site is noted for being well maintained, though availability can be limited.
