Redlands Coast

Travel Guide

Sunset at Straddie.
Blue-faced Honeyeater.  Can't see why it would be called this...
Pied Oyster Catcher - commonly seen in pairs on tidal flats.
Killarney Glen, within the Scenic Rim of Queensland and part of Qld National Parks is such a beautiful spot.  After a steep walk down (feels steeper going back) you come across a wonderful pebble filled creek and azure waters flowing into a heart shaped pool.  Here you'll find repellers, overseas tourists and even young backpackers in their underwear because they forgot their swimmers.  I just wanted to find it and take a few photos.  Take snacks and water.  There are facilities nearby. #queensland #hiking
Kookaburra on the back deck.  He was begging for fish scraps from our lunch.

Where to stay in Redlands Coast

Raby Bay Marina is a great spot for a sunset. If the markets are on the vibe and atmosphere is great.  There are lots of eating spots and a boardwalk around the marina. It’s a great place to just sit and watch.

Raby Bay

Raby Bay might not have many top sights, but Tarradarrapin Creek Wetlands and Cleveland Ferry Dock are two attractions nearby that you can check out.

Panoramic view of sunny Burleigh Heads on the Gold Coast

Alberton

While Alberton might not have many sights to explore, venturing just a little farther will lead you to top things to see and do like Yatala Drive-In Theatre and Carbrook Golf Club.

Nice location in a very walkable city. 2 BR with one bath is a bit tight for a family of 4 with only 1 bathroom by Australian apartment standards. Furnishing felt abit well-used. Good view of Kangaroo Point from our 60th floor.
