Why it's worth checking out

Eleanor Shipley Park sits on Seaview Terrace at Moffat Beach, a relaxed beachside pocket near Caloundra on the southern Sunshine Coast. A lovely beachside park, it's a much-loved local spot — combining grassy lawns, picnic areas and a popular playground with a beautiful position right by the beach and lovely ocean views.

The appeal is that combination of a gorgeous beachside setting and great family amenity: somewhere to picnic, relax and let the kids play, with the beach right there and lovely coastal views to enjoy. It captures the easygoing, seaside charm of Moffat Beach perfectly, a peaceful spot for a relaxed day by the sea.

With a 4.7 rating from more than 340 reviews, it's a much-loved spot. The park is free and open year-round, but facilities, beach conditions and parking vary, and it gets busier over weekends and holidays, so it's worth checking before a special trip — and taking sun protection — though for a picnic, a play or a relaxed day by the beach, you can generally just turn up and enjoy Eleanor Shipley Park at Moffat Beach.
