Tangalooma at Morton Island - What a place for weekends!

I often go to this place, 2 hrs journey from Brisbane (Australia's third largest city) on weekends and what a place it is to be on weekends. It is hard to describe in words. This place is surrounded by national park on Moreton Island, and Tangalooma offers a great places for visitors for living, exploring and adventure.

John a local says that living here is a blessing. White beaches look beautiful and great for photography. Tangalooma is great place for swimming, surfing and fishing. While I was searching online for this place, I also found out that this place is also listed as one of the best places for Whale Watching as you can see in this article. Some other places for whale watching are Gold Coast, and Redcliffe.

Western side of Tangalooma at Moreton Island is more relaxed and laid back. Typical Aussie place!

You can also enjoy the hiking and walking at the island or be part of a 4WD your and ride down the sand dunes.
