COOCHIEMUDLO BEACH

Public BBQ

Doug & Mary Morton Reserve on Coochiemudlo Island delivers a remarkable escape just ten minutes by ferry from Victoria Point, roughly an hour from Brisbane. The reserve's crown jewel is its stunning red cliffs near the southwest tip, where the remarkable march of soldier crabs at Curlew Creek provides natural entertainment that never gets old. The dual-level setup offers beach lounging or shaded spots among the trees, perfect for escaping Queensland's fierce sunshine. Barbecue facilities and toilets anchor the practical amenities, while the peaceful atmosphere and water views create an ideal setting for families seeking a proper day out. The beach invites swimming in calm conditions, and the parks weave through the reserve with understated charm. Watch storms roll across the water from this vantage point for pure drama. Everything needed for a day adventure sits within easy reach, yet the island maintains a serene quality that feels worlds away from mainland bustle. The ferry journey itself adds to the sense of occasion without demanding excessive time or planning.
