Mooloolaba Views

More beach views over Mooloolaba from Alexandra Headland.

Beach Views

A holiday break back to the coast and some beach views.

Alexandra Headland

Alexandra Headland turns on a great spectacle in an early overcast morning.

Prawn Star Wharf

A beautiful sunset view of the Prawn Star Trawler Restaurant at the Mooloolaba Wharf.

Whale One

Whale One whale watching vessel heads out of Mooloolah River on a tour. They should have had a good view as a few breaches could be seen from some playful whales in the distance.

Palm Defender

I hadn't taken a photo of the Defender for a while when this palm caught my attention walking back along the headland path from Mooloolaba.

Mooloolaba Morning

A morning view at the end of the rock wall at Mooloolaba Spit.

Distant Whale

Here in the west Pacific Ocean just off Mooloolaba we are lucky to see Humpback Whales migrate north and then south again after the calving season each year. If you look really, really closely you will just make out one whale taking a breath and diving again (just right of centre and very near the horizon). I clearly need a high zoom lens to catch these creatures from a distance of 300m.

Moolooaba Coast

Looking back at the Mooloolaba Coast from just offshore. Spectacular calm day to be on the water.

Mooloolaba Mornings

Third stop, back in the protection of the Mooloolaba Bay out of the wind and swell. The morning views were idyllic.

Cardinal Marker

Second stop, the East Cardinal marker affectionately known as the blinker off Mooloolaba. The wind was surprisingly strong and a mixed up swell from different directions made the seas a little confused out here.

La Balsa Park

A view from La Balsa Park on a wonderful day for a catch up with friends.

Leaving Mooloolaba

Leaving Mooloolaba making a beeline for Mudjimba Island.

Mooloolaba Foreshore

A new boardwalk on the Mooloolaba foreshore between Alex Headland and Mooloolaba affords some spectacular ocean vistas.

The Blinker

The East Cardinal Mark or the Blinker about 6nm offshore near Mooloolaba.

Double Island Point

Just south of Double Island Point I stopped for a photo and turned back to head home before the wind picked up too much more. In the end it was only about 20 knots and heading back to Mooloolaba with a tail wind was fairly smooth sailing.

Mooloolah River Headland

The Point Cartwright Headland that protects the entrance to the Mooloolah River at Mooloolaba.

Morning ocean views at The Spit, Mooloolaba.
