Beautifully laid out Parkland, Plenty of room for kids to play, clean & accessible BBQ areas, my Grandson loved the shoreline Rockwalls. He loved climbing thru them chasing little Crabs. Also as the afternoon was getting on, I took my Grandson for a swim. It was low tide, which my Grandson loved jumping between puddles left from the tide being out, to reach where the waterline was now. Out in the shallows he got his swim & had such a great time, with the idea of being out so far from the shore & swimming in water no deeper than his waist. His imagination was having a field day, as he told me he was a Crab, then an Octopus & swim fast like a shark. We had a great, relaxing BBQ, Rock Explore & swim. Then to complete our awesome day a stroll along the pathway watching the beautiful sunset. My Grandson with all his energy his 6yr old bady had, now he is ready for a clean up & bed. We have a 40 minute to an hour drive home, I reckon he'll be asleep in his car seat before we get home. But was a great day in a great & beautiful Parkland, yep we will be enjoying more of these days or arvo's more often at this Park & it's connecting Parks & Beaches around the Redcliffe Peninsula. Beautiful Places to visit for the whole Family.

Read morePelican park is a great place to visit on a sunny winter day or a moderate summer day. As well as large, grassy areas, there are a few small beaches here, as well as a boat ramp and takeaways across the road. A great path for walking and cycling, especially of an evening during sunset. On warm summer nights you may see bioluminescent plankton, though the street lighting does drown it out. The one main issue is that at certain times of the day and month, the tides and waves stir up the mangrove mud nearby and you get a bit if a stink. Sutton's' Beach is nearby as an alternative on such days, but it's usually more crowded. You can occasionally get smacks of jellyfish washed in under certain conditions to. The sting is irritating and...
