Tweed Heads is on the far New
South Wales coast on the Queensland
border. Whilst here you should definitely walk out to Point
Danger where you will be greeted by a large memorial for
Captain Cook.
The memorial marks the New South Wales and Queensland border
divide, and you can actually stand in both states at the
same time.
|
From Point Danger you can also get fantastic
views. Looking north you can see the Gold
Coast in Queensland and looking south you can see along
the Far North Coast coastline
in New South Wales.
Whilst at Tweed Heads you should take time to
explore the picturesque Tweed River, where you can see plenty
of wildlife. Popular activities along the river include canoeing,
fishing and kayaking. You can also hire a boat so that you can
explore the river on your own for a relaxing day.
Heading north from Tweed Heads you will
come to Coolangatta, its twin town situated on the Gold
Coast in Queensland. Both Tweed Heads and Coolangatta offer
great beaches within easy walking distance of each other.
You will also find some great surfing spots, all along this
coastal area.
