Flick the TV off and wrap up warm for a night time adventure to view the best star gazing spots in Brisbane and beyond.
Why waste a weeknight sitting on the couch when you could be spotting shooting stars and watching the galaxy twinkle.
Be sure to download a stargazing app on your phone (or source a book or guide) and head to one of these superb spots and make the most of a starry night sky.
Take a thrilling journey into outer space at these five star gazing Brisbane spots.
When night falls, head only 30 minutes north of Brisbane CBD to Redcliffe Peninsula. Believe it or not - this spot will deliver a stunning spectacle!
Find this special location on your walk from the car park to Settlement Cove Lagoon. The stars will take your breath away as they sparkle over the waters of Moreton Bay.
If you’re after a truly unique stargazing experience, head to one of Bribie Island National Park's best camping sites, Poverty Creek.
Nestled in a secluded nook along Pumicestone Passage, this spot is completely isolated and only accessible by 4WD or boat. This is the perfect spot to channel your inner beach bum.
Poverty Creek campground provides an expansive and shady spot on the western side of the island, with stunning views across to the Glass House Mountains (you will require a permit for Poverty Creek). Facilities include toilets, cold showers, picnic tables and fire pits. It is a favourite in our region for national park camping!
Take in the universe and feel a world away at Dahmongah Lookout Park, Mount Mee. On a clear night you might even be lucky enough to view the milky way just like this!
It can get a tad chilly up on the hill at night time so we suggest packing a blanket so you stay warm and are able to watch the night sky in ultimate comfort.
No matter where you park up in the suburb of Highvale you are sure to see the light show!
This area maintains minimal light pollution, which not only makes for a brilliant star-spotting location but also makes it a great place to spot nocturnal wildlife. When you visit, be sure to keep your eyes peeled!
Discover the hidden gems and sun-soaked adventures waiting for you in Moreton Bay. Just up the road from Brisbane, our region is where the coast meets hinterland adventure, and the laid-back Queensland lifestyle takes centre stage.
