Located close to Bundaberg on the East Coast of Australia, in between the coastal communities of Elliott Heads and Woodgate, is Coonarr, a small beachfront settlement. Coonarr Beach is an undeveloped 4.2km long white sandy beach stretching from the mouth of the Elliott River to the smaller mouth of Coonarr Creek.
This rural zoned 180-acre (73.12 ha) parcel of land with ocean reserve frontage has direct access to the beach across the state reserve with tracks leading to Coonarr Creek. The creek has an abundance of fish and mud crabs and is great for kayaking or fishing. The creek and the ocean can also be accessed by boat ramp which is a short drive away from the property.
The beach itself is magnificent, with pristine white sand and crystal-clear water. It is undeveloped, quiet and peaceful. It is great for all types of water sports - swimming, snorkelling, diving, jet skiing, paddle boarding, boating etc. Of course, it is also perfect for relaxing in the sun, walks along the beach and is dog friendly. Further South there is 4WD access to the beach and beach camping at Kinkuna National Park which is accessed via Palm Beach Rd, a short drive away. The Kinkuna National park has dirt and sand tracks suitable for 4 wheel driving, trail and quad bike riding.
This special and unique landholding is accessed via bitumen road from Coonarr Rd and Herbert Hall Rd with a dirt access road at the entrance to the property. A small amount of clearing has been done around this entry and the Southern boundary, providing a potential house site with ocean views. There are further slashed tracks across the Western and Northern Boundaries and through the middle of the lot. The remainder of the lot is natural bush providing opportunities for bush walking, bird watching, 4 wheel driving, quad and trail bike riding. There are further potential house sites with ocean views and power and telephone are accessible. Fencing runs along the Western, Northern and Southern boundaries.
