Enjoy Deception Bay Esplanade Park, where you're spoilt for choice of picnic areas by the water.
This quiet park is a serene location for those looking for a quiet escape to the sea. There are flat pathways up and down the beachfront, so you can find the best spot for you to enjoy the water views. You may also be lucky to spot glimpses of the Glasshouse Mountains on a clear day.
With direct beach access, you can wade in the ocean to cool down on a hot day or lie down on a towel and read a book. Keep an eye out on the horizon for water birds and migratory waders. These birds will be scouring for lunch in the mudflats.
Keen fishers can undock at the boat ramp or cast their line into the water to see what bites.
Other park facilities include picnic tables, rubbish bins, toilets, and water fountains.
