Duranbah Beach

Located in the Tweed Shire, Duranbah Beach is situated between the mouth of the Tweed River and the rocky headland Point Danger which also marks the Queensland-New South Wales border.

[2] The southern end of the beach features BBQs, sheltered picnic areas including a block of toilets and shower just behind it.

Big surfing events have been staged there including the Quiksilver Pro Gold Coast, the professional surfing contest which was held in conjunction with Snapper Rocks and the state, national and international bodyboarding contests.

[2] There are often persistent rips and strong tidal currents which make the beach a potentially hazardous place to swim.

[4] In 1956 Jack Evans built the Snapper Rocks Sea Baths, with an adjacent shark pool for public viewing.
