Adventure: Dicky Beach to Currimundi Lake coastal pathway

If there's a break in the rain, this adventure captures the gorgeous coastal bushland at Dicky Beach to the stunning calm waters at Currimundi Lake, with truly picturesque beach and creek views throughout.

Suitability

This is an easy 1.7 km one-way (3.4 km return) walk or cycle that is suitable for the whole family, dogs on-lead included. Rated easy grade, it is perfect for walkers, runners, recreational cyclists, wheelchairs and prams.

Highlights

Walkers have the option to head along the path from Dicky Beach through beautiful coastal bushland, with pockets of views onto the local beaches. Otherwise (when warm enough), head down onto the beach and enjoy a swim along the way!

The path option will take you across the scenic Coondibah Creek bridge - half-way through the walk - with expansive views over the creek (beautiful any time of day).

Once you reach the eastern end of Currimundi Lake you won’t want to leave in a hurry. The calm waters and endless sand make it an aquatic playground for the whole family. This largely shaded section of the coastal pathway is a great option for hotter days.

Afterwards

While at Currimundi Lake, spend some time enjoying the surrounds in Cliff Hargreaves Park. This popular park overlooks the lake and has a playground, barbecue and picnic tables, natural shade, beach showers as well as public amenities.

And, be sure to enjoy the stunning new 500m section of coastal pathway, which is the other direction (right) from Dicky Beach Skatepark to Cooroora Street, boasting sweeping vistas!

How to get there

Park your car at the Dicky Beach Park carpark on Beerburrum Street and then head left towards the surf club and you’ll see the pathway continue past the club.
