Swim with caution, shifting sands and gutters
offer a nice wave for surfers but care must
be taken for the inexperienced. The area
is popular with the anglers with a great
variety of fishing spots. Some shelter is
provided from the summer north-easterly
winds due to the direction of the beach.
FEATURES:Great
parking and a nice walk along the river and
out to the rock wall navigational light along
a cement path for majestic views of Stradbroke
Island and Surfers Paradise. SURFING:Very
nice clean wave during small swell, the wave
refracts off the rock wall and there is usually
a nice bank and a short peaky left. The experienced
surfer has been known to paddle across the
entrance for the some times larger South Stradbroke
Island (The Other Side) waves. The current
can be fierce so take care. FISHING:The
fishing options are endless. Come prepared
with lots of tackle and a variety of fishing
rods and rigs. Take a walk along the river
away from the mouth to find some nice spots
for the less experienced. Fish towards the
mouth or if no luck there try of the end of
the rock wall into the beach side. You can
fish of the Sand Pumping Jetty at a cost of
$3.50 each for good catches of Whiting, Taylor,
Jew and Bream.
WALKING:Walk
along the river or take the short stroll out
to the rock wall. Brilliant views of Surfers
Paradise exist from the far end of the rock
wall especially during dusk. Extreme care
must be taken when climbing over the large
rocks, keep your children away from the edges
as the large boulders are uneven and unsafe.
The Sand Pumping Jetty offers brilliant views
of Surfers Paradise and the Gold Coast line.
Cost $1.50 to enter the jetty $3.50 for people
fishing. Children are free. Take a walk out
to the end of the jetty at night and take
in the majestic views.
