A walking adventure at Scarborough, Queensland



There is this hidden walking gem that it appears only a few know about. If you go to any water area along Redcliffe there are always people around but here, only a few locals with their dogs seem to know about this place.

So where is it? 

Endeavour Park off Endeavour Esplanade in Scarborough, Redcliffe, Queensland, Australia. 

I left work early and decided to do a walking adventure at one of my favourite locations. The charm of the housing lined up with views of the ocean is smart housing. Plus the different types of boats from sail boats to whale watching yachts is a sight to see and then you have the ocean literally at your feet. 

Plus, I don’t know what it is but it’s so cool to see the sky meet with the ocean. You can just breathe fresh air here and just feel good. 

The walking area seems small but it isn’t. I did 5,000 steps up and down the strip. 

I then walked along the sandy mud because, why not? It’s just as cool. 


Look at the beautiful sky in this photo, just stunning. It was very calming this walk with the blue water and blue sky and the different elements such as the muddy sand and the trees. 

Also along the walk has a rocky stone boarder. So I can hear the water gently hitting against the rocks. Making it a very peaceful walk. 

And I still had some energy and excitement so I went a bit further in Scarborough to my next exploration. 

Welcome to: Bill Marsh Lookout at Scarborough Beach off Landsborough Avenue, Scarborough, Queensland







It was getting late in the afternoon, so one thing to be mindful of is if you are going to explore, make sure the tide doesn’t come in too fast and leave you on the sandy banks without a way back. 

This was a cool thing to do, except here is another warning you should wear closed in shoes because the rocky shells on this ground can cut right through your feet. 

In addition, a bit further it says the red dirt wall may fall, which is a bit frightening and limited my time there after seeing the sign. 

Also your shoes go bright orange from walking even near the red dirt. 

So a few things to consider before exploring. I did enjoy the exploring though and even though I have been to Redcliffe many times before, I don’t believe I have ever seen this special spot. 

Afterwards, I saw some women going up and down the stairs as a form of exercise and it definitely had me puffing Just going back up once.

So if you are in the area, go visit these two places not just for a walk but for an adventure. 

Overall, it was an overcast day and was supposed to storm, hence the clouds but it ended up being perfect weather and I ended up doing well over 8,000 steps and my legs were quite exhausted, I had a smile on my face and my soul enjoyed and felt at peace with its adventure.

Exploring Wellington Point

Image
I went to visit Wellington Point beach. I did used to live there when I was young and thought, is there much there?  It was a funny day, it started sunny but the drive to Wellington Point was a wet one. It was the afternoon and I arrived to pouring rain and a dark sky to Wellington Point beach. I have to say though, it still looked stunning. Wellington Point has a road that comes down a hill and then this path so if you wanted could drive around a half circle to see the ocean right round before finding a park.  The first thing I did was get an undercover table and then watched the rain fall. I wasn’t really sure if I would be heading home without actually going on the beach of Wellington Point with the rain heavily pounding the ground. However, by some miracle, the sky dried up and then I walked over to the island. The sun light pushing through the clouds was magnificent over the sand and water. The sand was filled with shells and I heard walking on the ground is called ground...

Travelling to Bulcock Beach, Sunshine Coast, Queensland

Image
I was dreaming about seeing the clear and soft sand at the beach at the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Australia. I haven’t been to the Sunshine Coast in about 7 years. I love the Sunshine Coast, especially the beaches and the clear and soft sand and blue skies.  So I decided to catch public transport there (quite a trip but it went quick and 50c fairs #winning) and went to Caloundra up the coast of Brisbane near King’s Beach at Bulcock Beach. A stop at Landsborough station, while the wait for the bus meant exploring Landsborough and discovering the Landsborough museum, which was a cool find. The museum had some interesting history as well as some activities even for adults to partake. It was a free exhibit and also had much needed toilets after the travel.  Caloundra’s crystal waters  The Sunshine Coast has beautiful crystal waters. And this one beach at Bulcock Beach is about a good walk from King’s Beach. The water was still and about knee deep, so I could lay in it, swim...
