This is my favourite beach in the world. THE WORLD. Nothing can match the idyllic beauty of this…read morespot. The sheltered little cove is all sparkling water and gentle, rolling cylinder waves. It's not loved by surfers, which is fine by me as I don't love getting hit in the head by surf boards. You're not meant to have your dog there, but no one ever gave us any stick when we took our puppy down on holiday recently. She's not a swimmer, however she had an awesome time guarding our towels and stressing out while I put myself in danger by going for a swim. The beach is patrolled during the day and is a family favourite. It's my version of paradise.

There is also a large dog park where your pooch can run off-leash with other dogs. It is great for dog-owners and other people who enjoy the mud flats of Moreton bay (eg: fishing people). It is not great for children, in particular, small children playing in the off leash play area. This is dangerous and I cannot understand why parents cannot see this. My dog is a boisterous puppy who is not used to children and could injure one just playing (which is what puppies do..). If I see children in the off-leash area I will keep my dog on the leash or go play in the dog park. Not all dog owners are as sensible / sensitive. It is a great facility and a great joy for many people to see their dogs play together and take a dip in the water.

A large sandy shoreline and a footpath lining the length of it. Close to ample eateries, shopping and accommodation. A beautiful tourist destination. I am somewhat biased though.

There is the large concrete bottom pool that draws quite the crowd in hot weather, as does the neighboring beach (sand bottom) pool There is also a small kids pool and kids water playground. It's FREE! There are public restrooms steps away that give you a free space to change, plus lockers available for rent. It is easy to spend an entire day here, enjoying the public amenities and pool while having quick access to restrooms, lunch spots, and ice cream trucks. Overall I give Streets Beach Five Stars out of Five. It's a MUST VISIT.

When people come to visit Brisbane and ask me "what is there to do here?" sometimes I get stumped…read more I mean, I'm a local and I've got my places to go, but where are the really pop out kind of spots that are worth noting to a tourist? In recent months I've been building a list of "tacky, weird stuff to do" in Brisbane list. Streets Beach is right at the top of this list. A man made beach, complete with sand, life guards and umbrellas- right in the middle of the city! I used to think this beach was horribly tacky and I used to avoid it like the plague. It was always full of little kids who you could trust to pee in the water, or young buff couples getting sexy in the deeper waters. Am I selling this yet? In recent years however, I don't avoid it so much. I've grown fond of strolling down to the beach of a night time for a dip. You can float on your back and gaze out at the skyline, and watch the lights reflect off the water of the river below. It's actually really pretty. Just maybe take care to not put your head under water. You never know what's beneath the surface. Take this as you will. It's open until 10pm of a night time.
