Kawana

Kawana Waters is home to one of the region’s premier sports and entertainment precincts that includes Stockland Park and the Lake Kawana Community Centre. Both host major events year round. The man-made waterway of Lake Kawana has become popular with a number of sports including kayaking, canoeing, outrigging, dragon boat racing and motorised boats. The foreshores of the lake have walking/bicycle tracks perfect for some light exercise or to watch a regatta. There is a marina at the northern end of Kawana on the main canal. Pick up a cruise that will weave past waterfront homes and into the Mooloolah River past the Mooloolaba Yacht Club and to the river mouth. Kawana Shoppingworld is one of the largest shopping malls in the region. Shop in air-conditioned comfort with over 100 retailers to satisfy all of your fashion, food and services requirements. Kawana has excellent fishing and surfing along one of the longest stretches of ocean coastline in the area. Point Cartwright marks the northern end of the beach and is part of a great walking track along the coastline. Just near Point Cartwright is LaBalsa Park, which runs along the edge of the Mooloolah River. It’s a popular place for a barbeque or picnic with plenty of room to move and spread out. Take the walk from the park to the end of the rock wall that marks the river entrance then follow the path that winds through the Point Cartwright Lighthouse Reserve....
