Went for a walk with our young Groodle pup, wanting to find a spot we could let her off-leash without running into other dogs. This part of Bribie has beautiful drift wood & fallen trees that perfectly seperates a few spacious areas for small groups/couples to relax/picnic/swim/play with or without dogs!

Also look up No Limits 4x4 hire if you don’t have your own as they specialise in trucks that get you into the off roading spirit. No toilets, no power and no camping sites. Just miles and miles of beach,...
