Boreen Point, Qld.

Cootharaba Sailing Club, Boreen Point

Boreen Point is a pleasant village on the banks of Lake Cootharaba, 24 km north of Noosa. The lake is popular in the morning for kayaking and canoeing and with sailing and wind surfing in the afternoon, when the wind comes up. The water is shallow near the shore and is great for families with young children.

Boreen Point Campground is a Noosa Council Holiday Park on the edge of Lake Cootharaba. There are eight powered sites suitable for small caravans, an open tent campground and bush camping sites for tents and camper trailers. There is no town water but there are hot showers and flushing toilets using bore water. Small dogs may be allowed but you need to download and submit an application before booking. Although it is worth noting that dogs don't seem to be allowed on the beaches at Boreen Point.There is an excellent new dump point and bins are provided. Kayaks can be hired from the campground office. One special feature of this campground is that boats and other watercraft can be left on the beach during your stay. There is also a walkway from the campground to the historic Apollonian Hotel.
