The Heart of any Moreton Island adventure has got to be hanging at the beach. Stretches of white sandy beach line the island's ocean side making it ideal for swimming, surfing, and fishing, while the sheltered western edge offer a calm environment protected from the ocean waves and sometimes strong easterly winds for those after a more relaxing experience with crystal clear blue water gently lapping against the white sandy beach.
Tangalooma Beach
Tangalooma Beach is a 8km long, west facing beach gently curved between the southern Tangalooma Point, past the 1km long settlement with its two jetties, up to Cowan Cowan Point, site of an island airstrip. Much of the beach is backed by a 50 to 100m high, vegetated sand dune , with two bare faced dunes next to Tangalooma wrecks that are usually climbed for a great view up and down the length of the beach. The beach consists of a narrow high tide beach, getting wider at the point in front of the tangalooma campgrounds.
