Starting from Waterloo Esplanade, Wynnum, this walk takes you to Manly and back via a set of coastal tracks, visiting heaps of interesting places midway. The Breakwater Park to East Coast Marina walk takes you through a variety of scenic locations. This journey takes you past two of Brisbane's most beloved aquatic spots: the huge Wynnum Wading Pool and the waterfront Pandanus Beach water park, Brisbane's oldest of its kind. These kid-friendly attractions are perfect for families looking to cool off on a hot day and offer plenty of picnic tables and BBQs for a fun day out by the water. George Clayton Park, known as the 'lighthouse park' due to its playground tower that resembles a lighthouse, is also on the route as well as the iconic yacht marina at Manly. Along the way, there are multiple cafes to stop at and enjoy a bite to eat. Dogs are allowed on a leash, making this a great option for a leisurely stroll with your furry friend. The walk has separate tracks for walkers and bikers along the foreshore. The whole walk and the wading pool are accessible. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
Before you start any bushwalk ensure you;
• Tell someone you trust where you are going and what to do if you are overdue
• Have adequate equipment, supplies, skills & knowledge for the whole journey
• Consider the impact of weather forecasts, park/track closures & fire dangers
• Can respond to emergencies & call for help at any point
• Are healthy and fit enough for this journey
If not, change plans and stay safe. It is okay to delay and ask people for help.
