All about Moffat Beach
The small coastal town of Moffat Beach is located in the Sunshine Coast region of Queensland — less than a 90-minute drive from Brisbane. A lesser-known holiday destination than other Sunshine Coast beaches like Dicky Beach and Kings Beach, it’s an ideal spot for deep relaxation. Behind the compact main beach, lined with pandanus and palm trees, you’ll find a lawn area with a playground where you can settle down and watch the surf. There are also barbeques and picnic shelters at Eleanor Shipley Memorial Park — a great place to relax, especially in the warmer months. The beach itself has a renowned surf break, and there’s also a safe swimming spot at Tooway Creek.
When you’ve had your fill of beach time, you can also explore the Caloundra Coastal Walk, which runs from Golden Beach to Mooloolaba Beach and includes various heritage-listed historic sights.
Moffat Beach is also known for its quality selection of cafes, restaurants, and bars, including a great local craft brewery.
What are the top things to do in Moffat Beach?
The Beach
Moffat Beach is most renowned for its point break which attracts surfers year round, but if you don’t surf, there are still plenty of ways to enjoy this sunny little beachside town. There is a sandy inlet at Tooway Creek that is a popular spot for kayaking and stand-up paddle boarding. Moffat Beach is also pet-friendly and allows off-leash access between 4 p.m. and 8 a.m. daily.

There are some heritage-listed historic sites along the way, including the Kings Beach Bathing Pavilion, which was built in 1937, and a military jetty that was used during World War II.
