STRADBROKE ISLAND - Straddie to the locals ! |
A visit to Stradbroke Island "Straddie" is an unforgettable experience! Kilometres of white sandy beaches, rugged headlands offering a National Geographic style view of marine life, and a range of high quality holiday rental accommodation properties on this easy to get to Queensland island - North Stradbroke Island.
Most of the Stradbroke Island accommodation is homes and apartments that boast outstanding views of the Coral Sea towards Moreton Island. These Straddie properties offer easy access to Point Lookout beaches as well as quality cafes and restaurants right at the doorstep. Straddie is just a 50 minute vehicular ferry ride from Brisbane or 25 minutes by high speed jet cat which is met by a bus service to Point Lookout.
Straddie is a great place to enjoy a well earned week off or as a family day trip to escape the pace and hassle of city life. Locked in some type of time warp, Straddie offers the old style beach holiday we used to have as kids - clean blue waters and white sandy beaches, friendly locals, hot chips and gravy, leisurely unpretentious dining options, patrolled beaches, guided tours and self guided options....the list goes on! |

ABOUT STRADBROKE ISLAND : HISTORY |
Stradbroke Island or "Straddie" as it is known to those who frequent the island covers 27,530 hectares. The elongated sand island of North Stradbroke shields much of the southern part of Moreton Bay and the smaller islands from the ocean swells.
North Stradbroke attracts 4WDers, anglers, surfers and beach lovers to its expansive stretches of sandy coast and the Island offers a range of accommodation and holiday infrastructure. There is land based whale watching from Point Lookout during winter and world class surfing throughout the year on the breaks that surround Point Lookout. The ideal way to see the Island is by 4 Wheel Drive, but there are many stunning coastal walks and a mountain bike and whale watching map are an easier and more environmentally sound alternative.
