A Perfect Day Out on the Broadwater

First time on the Broadwater? Don’t overthink it. We have mapped out a day that hits all the good stuff: a surf beach, a long lunch, and fish and chips on a sandbar you’ll have all to yourselves. Just follow the run and leave the planning to us. 

  • Pontoon boat on calm water at sunset beside a sandy beach

    Currigee, South Stradbroke Island

    Tie up, wander across the island, and you’ll find a proper surf beach on the other side. Toilets and barbecues are there if you need them (small fee applies). 

  • Sandy waterfront boat launch with docked motorboats, pontoon boats, and an Assembly Area sign beside the Salty Days Boat Hire logo.

    Tipplers, South Stradbroke Island

    The lunch stop. There’s a restaurant and bar for those who have earned a cold one, free barbecues if you’ve brought the snags, plus toilets and a playground to keep the kids busy. 

  • Child playing in shallow water near a sandy beach with a coastal city skyline under a bright blue sky

    Seafood on a Sandbar

    Grab fish and chips, cruise to a sandbar, and claim a beach with nobody else on it. Hard to beat for a sunset dinner

  • Children playing with a bucket on a sandy beach beside a calm bay with boats and waterfront homes

    Paradise Point beach north

    A quieter patch of sand tucked by the Sovereign Island bridge, away from the Esplanade crowds.
