To reach our carpark simply take a left at the very next roundabout and we are 3/4 of the way up Hermitage Drive on the right hand side. There is a sign that clearly show's where the carparking area is. Should the carpark be full it is more than safe to leave your car on Hermitage Drive.

You can arrange this very easy by purchasing the ticket once you land in Proserpine Airport from the ticket desk which is located at the exit gate as you leave the terminal.
