The Neighborhood: Point Cartwright is an un-patrolled beach situated at the base of the headland at the very northern end of Kawana beach. It’s popular with locals for its surf break. The high cliffs of the coastal headland reserve provide spectacular views of Mooloolaba, the Mooloolah River mouth, Mount Coolum to the north and Kawana Beach to the south. It’s often possible to spot migratory humpback whales, turtles, and ships entering and leaving the Port of Brisbane.
Grassy slopes provide excellent locations for family picnics, and toilet facilities are available at the Pacific Boulevard entrance to the reserve.
La Balsa Park, at the end of Harbour Drive and on the edge of the Mooloolah River is the perfect place for the kids to play and the adults to sit and enjoy the sea breeze.
Many visitors and residents enjoy fishing from the banks of the Mooloolah River or the bund wall, which are accessible from the Harbour Drive entrance and the reserve.
Getting Around: Once you have arrived, everything can be accessed via a short walk. The northern end of the Kawana beach stretch is directly across the road.
The closest patrolled beach is Kawana, less than a 5-minute drive down the road (or Mooloolaba Beach is only 10 mins north). The stunning Pt Cartright headland and La'Balsa park are a 5-minute walk towards the headland.
The Kawana shopping centre is also within a 10-minute walk.
Uber rides and taxis are easy to get from this location. The closest bus stop is only a few minutes walk back towards Kawana shopping world.
If you have your own car, there is ample space to park on the premises or on the road directly in front of the house.

Great Family Beach House
Second time staying at this house, first with a group of ladies for a weekend away. Fell in love with the kitchen as the hub of our family cooking and baking together. Loved our family get together at this amazing property. Have booked a second stay later in the year. Thank you to the owners for letting us, and our fur babies, into your home. :)

Family get together
It was ideal for our family. Beach, playground, surf club. We are from Central Australia so it was wonderful to be near the beach.
Some information on surf safety would be VERY helpful

Great getaway
Lovely big house with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms.
The TV downstairs didn’t turn on. Otherwise every thing was fine. There were a lot of other TVs though. Lovely location and view.
