Beachmere, QLD 4510
The township of Beachmere, in the northern section of Moreton Bay Region between Deception Bay and Sandstone Point, is a quiet hideaway perfect for a bayside nature reprieve.
Boat and Watercraft Fun:
You’ll find a two-lane boat ramp and pontoon with plenty of parking, toilets and water available at the end of Saint Smith Road. The ramp will launch you into the Caboolture River from where you can either navigate up the river or out into the bay, into Pumicestone Passage or Burpengary Creek, or towards Deception Bay, Scarborough, or even Moreton Island.
For those without their own powered or unpowered vessel, you’ll find boat hire places nearby in Sandstone Point and on Bribie Island.
Horse Around on the Beach:
As Beachmere is not far from the Queensland State Equestrian Centre in Caboolture, it’s not uncommon to see riders and their faithful steeds trotting along the waterfront at low tide in preparation for equestrian events (or simply for fun).
Family Fun in the Sun:
Bring the family for some beach play. You can enjoy an undercover picnic in Moreton Terrace Park as you watch the kids play on the beach – making sandcastles, wading and splashing and watching on mesmerised as multitudes of tiny soldier crabs scuttle along the mud flats at low tide.
Dog Walks!
Families with dogs are also welcome to visit. Off-leash pups can traipse south from the southern end of Biggs Avenue (adjacent to the carpark) to the mouth of Caboolture River along the foreshore only.
