Popular around Bill Huxley Nature Refuge
Granite Bay is a striking section of coastline along the Noosa National Park, made up of exposed rock platforms with waves moving in around the edges. It stands out along the route and feels like a bit of a hidden gem compared to the busier beaches nearby. The setting is raw and open, with constant ocean movement and clear views along the coast.

This scenic headland viewpoint is known for frequent dolphin sightings as they cruise the coastline below. There are wide views across Laguna Bay and back toward Noosa Heads, with benches for resting and watching the ocean. The open, elevated vantage point makes it a popular spot for wildlife spotting, especially during whale migration season.

There are no koalas left in Noosa park, they are all gone for years now. The signs are just left over from 10 years ago and you will never see one. I’ve trail run this park daily, 25000 km over ten years and knew all the hidden spots they were in. Parks and wildlife should remove the koala spotting signs as they are disinformation now. It’s quite dishonest signage but politicians like to pretend they have not wrecked the natural environment for profit so it stays.

Wonderful coastal hiking trail with diverse views. The only problem is the parking situation.
