I'm sorry to disappoint you Scott but it aint too dark at Dreamworld and the surrounds. You would probably get darker skies on the outskirts of Newcastle than you would there. It's stuck about 3/4 the way between Brisbane and the Gold Coast which is only an hours drive and there is solid development all the way along the freeway with all those charming freeway lights that are put in to help people see that they are on a road. After Wooloongong/Sydney/Central Coast area and the Melbourne surrounds that area would probably be one of the worst light polluted areas in Australia.
Its a shame really as I remember fishing at Jocobs Well as a kid (which in halfway between the GC and Brisvegas) and it was as black as the insides of a coal mine.
