Cape Hillsborough Beach

Highlights

Cape Hillsborough Beach is where the rainforest meets the ocean, creating a magical world filled with adventure and wonder. Early in the morning, you might spot adorable wallabies hopping along the beach, so have your camera ready! Explore the sandy shores, search for sea creatures in rock pools, and marvel at the unique patterns made by sand bubbler crabs.

Learn about the Yuibera Aboriginal people who lived here long before the area was named by explorer James Cook. Take a walk along the Diversity Boardwalk and Yuibera Plant Trail to discover how they used the land for food, medicine, and shelter. Whether you're camping, swimming, or just soaking up the natural beauty, Cape Hillsborough Beach is perfect for families and friends to explore together!
