About Double Island Point, Cooloola, Great Sandy National Park

An iconic feature of Cooloola in Great Sandy National Park, Double Island Point is a scenic headland offering mesmerising views along the beach and out to sea. The easiest way to visit Double Island Point is by four-wheel-drive vehicle along Cooloola's beach drive between Noosa North Shore and Rainbow Beach. Explore the Double Island Point lighthouse walk for mesmerising ocean views from the lighthouse high on the headland, and imagine life for the early lightkeepers and their families. If you are feeling energetic, consider the Grade 4 Double Island Point walk, a full day hike from Rainbow Beach. Set out early and follow the old lighthouse telegraph line along the high coastal dunes—you'll see old telegraph posts still standing among the tall blackbutt trees. When you reach the beach, splash in the calm lagoon at the base of Double Island Point headland and watch surfers at the base of the headland catching long, rolling waves. Then climb the steep track to the lighthouse and enjoy lunch while gazing at sweeping views over the ocean and coast to the north and south. Fully refreshed, you'll be ready for the return journey.
