Enjoy the best surf in Australia
Tweed Heads is a holiday paradise in the far north of New South Wales boasting white sandy beaches, clear blue seas bursting with marine life and toweringrainforest-clad mountains.
Tweed Heads makes up half of the ‘Twin Towns’, its partner being Coolangatta, just over the border in Queensland. This proximity facilitates the annual scramble to celebrate New Year’s Eve twice within one hour by crossing Boundary Street. That’s because New South Wales observes daylight savings in the summer, putting it one hour ahead of Queensland, which doesn’t.
Tweed Heads is within easy reach of Gold Coast Airport just 10 minutes’ drive away. The M1 Pacific Highway runs through the town, placing it one hour from Brisbane to the north and opening up destinations further south along the dreamy NSW coast.
Tweed Heads is known for its unspoilt beaches which offer some of the best surfing in Australia – a fact recognised by the Tweed Coast Pro Surf Series, which holds an annual competition at Cabarita Beach.
Tweed Heads is also a centre for whale watching, snorkelling and fishing – and further inland the stunning Mount Warning offers panoramic views among lush rainforest landscapes.

A Quick Guide to Tweed Heads
Both sides of the border in Twin Towns will enthusiastically tell you that they’re the best, and whose to say who is right – one things is for certain though, this is a place designed to give tourists the time of their lives. With some of the world’s best beaches and an infrastructure designed to entertain many thousands of visitors a year, you are sure to have an amazing seaside experience here. Tweed Heads is renowned for its beach lifestyle and exciting nightlife, with pubs, clubs and casinos to explore and enjoy here. Add the delicious food scene and you have all the makings of a holiday to remember.
Ride like the Pioneers
Spend a day on horseback at a working farm at Pioneer Country – this 300-acre property has plenty to explore, with a tour through an underground opal mine, a baby animal farm tour, a mustering demonstration, the family museum and boomerang throwing – they’ll even give you a cooking lesson, so you can enjoy some traditional Aussie cooking. They’ll take you horse riding and teach you how to crack a whip, giving you the full experience of what it’s like to live on and work the land. Owned by the same family since 1892, this is a place rich in heritage, and you will have a lot of fun here while you learn some new skills.
Lighthouse Memories
For one of the best views in town and a photo opportunity that’s endlessly Instagrammable, head to the Captain Cook Memorial and Lighthouse on Point Danger. It’s right on the border, and 18 metres tall, so you really can’t miss it. The memorial is shaped like a capstan and is made from ballast that was jettisoned from Captain Cook’s ship the Endeavour – it was recovered off the coast in the 1960s. The lighthouse is an amazing sight, and if you look out to see you might be lucky enough to see some dolphins at the right time of year. You can see all the way to Byron Bay on clear day, so take the time to walk along the cliffs and enjoy the view.
Aboriginal Dreaming
A museum, an art gallery and more is what you’ll find at The Minjungbal Aboriginal Cultural Centre, one of the best indigenous culture venues in the area. There’s a ceremonial bora ring here along with a lot of other fascinating artefacts of aboriginal life. The pre-colonial history of this area is vast and rich, and you will get a glimpse of it in the interactive displays here. The Minjungbal Dance Troup perform in the amphitheatre here, and if you’re in a group you can book in with them to see their artistry first hand. The nature walk is wheelchair accessible, and makes for a very enjoyable way to learn more about the region’s history. There are barbeques and a picnic area here, along with a café and a gift shop so you can choose a treasure to take home with you.
