Daisy Hill Conservation Park is a beautiful eucalypt forest reserve dedicated to both conservation efforts and recreational activities. It includes a well-established network of trails that are perfect for shared use and is home to koalas and a variety of native wildlife.

The terrain is mostly gentle, with wide pathways and areas of denser bushland scattered throughout, making it an inviting destination for nature lovers.

Orana Esplanade Park is part of a continuous coastal corridor connecting Point Halloran with other foreshore reserves, sitting directly between mangrove-lined habitats along Moreton Bay. The park runs right along the sealed walking and cycling path on the boundary of the Moreton Bay Marine Park, with several access points to small sandy sections of shoreline and launch spots for small boats at higher tide. This stretch is especially known for its intertidal mudflats and birdlife, especially around Point Halloran, making it an ideal place to immerse yourself in nature and take in the scenery.

Les Moore Park is a small foreshore reserve along the edge of Moreton Bay, with grassy open space and direct access to the shoreline. The park sits right along the coastal path and looks out over tidal flats and the calm bay waters, with mangroves and seabirds commonly seen along this quieter stretch of coast. There are picnic areas and several benches, making it a great place to stop along the waterfront, with a relaxed, local feel rather than a busy destination park.

Moreton Bay Cycleway is a long-distance coastal route that follows the shoreline of Moreton Bay, linking communities from the Redcliffe Peninsula through Brisbane’s bayside suburbs down to Redland Bay. Developed as a network of shared paths and on-road sections, it spans roughly 150 kilometres and connects beaches, wetlands, parks, and urban foreshore areas along the coast. Along this section, the path follows the foreshore past mangroves and tidal flats, with expansive views across the bay and is a lovely, quieter feel compared to the busier beachfront stretches.
