Cooloola National Park - Sunday, April 7th
Hi Guys & Gals,
A bit of a short notice, myself and family are heading up from the Gold Coast on a mini holiday to Caloundra on Saturday April 6th, returning home on Tuesday 9th.
I am planning to check out Cooloola National Park across the Noosa River in Tewantin and thought I’d post this and see if anyone would like to come along for the day.
On Sunday April 7th, the stars will align for a perfect low tide of 0.43 m at 12.10Pm, meaning 9.30 – 10.00am would be perfect time to hit the beach.
Access is on the Noosa North Shore Ferry http://www.noosacarferries.com/ located at the end of Moorindal Street, Tewantin. Price is $6.00 each way. The trip across the river only takes a few minutes and the ferry departs on demand. I called them and they assured me that no booking is requierd.
A Vehicle beach permit is required which is best to get online in advance here http://nprsr.qld.gov.au/recreation-areas/vehicle_access_permit_fees.html
Looking at the most updated reports on the QLD National Parks website http://nprsr.qld.gov.au/parks/cooloola/pdf/cooloola-conditions-report.pdf , the access tracks and defiantly inland tracks can be rough with soft sand and exposed rocks.
I’m sure that no one would like to come home with any damage, so I would suggest getting onto the beach driving up north, stopping for lunch / swim etc. and head back in the afternoon.
Meeting point will be at the ferry (end of Moorindal Street, Tewantin) at 9.15am
****Important disclaimer, please read the event rules before coming on this trip. They can be viewed HERE

Re: Cooloola National Park - Sunday, April 7th
Good idea..
It is a easy ride on the beach with optional challenges on the soft bits.
In the back of my mind - Is there a dog exclusion zone there?
