Information

Popular with canoeists and boaties, and close to the Hook Point barge landing, this quiet spot is great for travellers on the Eastern Beach scenic drive who need to wait on the tides before continuing their journey.
Set up camp in a forest of paperbarks and eucalypts and take in the views over the Great Sandy Straights towards Tin Can Bay, perfect for orange-tinted skylines at dusk.
Coolooloi Creek was an old sand mining road and sand was trucked to barges waiting on the island's southern tip. Mining ceased when K'gari was declared a World Heritage Area in 1992.
