Kawana Beach

Kawana Beach stretches along the coast at Kawana Waters, on the Sunshine Coast. A near-perfect 4.9 rating from 189 reviews reflects its standing as a much-loved local beach.

The appeal is a beautiful, relaxed stretch of coast — long golden sand and rolling surf, often quieter than the busier tourist beaches, perfect for a swim, a surf, a walk or simply soaking up the scenery. It's a genuine local favourite and a lovely spot to spend part of a day.

Beaches have changing conditions, tides and seasonal patrols, so check current details and swim between the flags where patrolled. Otherwise it's a free, easygoing spot to enjoy whenever the weather's good — bring sun protection, water and your swimmers.
