Why it's worth checking out

Palkana Park is a small, relaxed green space on Oceanic Drive in Warana, within Kawana Waters on the Sunshine Coast. It is set up for simple outings, with picnic tables and seating that make it easy to stop for a snack or coffee, whether you are visiting with family, meeting friends or taking a quiet break outdoors.

The park also provides beach access and a shower, which is useful for rinsing off after time by the water. Dogs are allowed off-leash at the park, making it a practical stop for locals bringing their pets. The nearby beach is not patrolled, however, so visitors should take care around the water, particularly when conditions are rough or the waves are large.

Palkana Park is open around the clock and entry is free. It suits visitors looking for an uncomplicated picnic spot close to the beach rather than a major attraction, with Point Cartwright and Currimundi Creek among the other places to explore around the Kawana Waters and Warana area.
