Farnborough Beach

Great for Dogs, Kids, and a Lovely Beach Drive

When travelling with a dog, you soon realise that many areas are not dog friendly. They are what I describe as dog tolerant.

By dog friendly, I mean the ability to let the your dog run freely about, with you keeping an eye on him or her, of course. After all you do need to clean up after them, and also just as importantly make sure they don’t get themselves into trouble.

Well, this beach is dog friendly, and to boot you are allowed to drive on it.

It is about 10 minutes north of Yeppoon, easy to get on the beach with a 4WD, head north and find a spot to have a picnic. Bonus is, during the week your dog can be off leash.

The beach is firm, so easy to drive on, and when the tide is low, there is heaps of beach for the dogs to run around.

When we were there, it was relatively quite, a few other people with their dogs running around, but since the beach is so big, especially at low tide, it was easy to find a spot away from other people.
