Main Beach stretches for 32kms of unspoilt sand, dunes and surf. It is popular with board riders and bodysurfers who enjoy the big swells. The waves are large and powerful and the views are spectacular. The headland is the best vantage point for watching the surfing action and spotting dolphins. Main Beach is best during northerly winds, when snorkelling and scuba diving are suitable along the north wall. Avoid Main Beach during southeast wind conditions and always be aware of strong rips and side currents. Lifeguards and lifesavers patrol the beach next to the Surf Lifesaving Club. Beach driving is permitted on Main Beach, a 4WD permit is required. Access to Main Beach with a 4WD is from George Nothling Drive, or the Causeway entry off Tazi Rd, Dunwich. Beach Patrol hours: From the commencement of Queensland September School Holidays to the first weekend in May. Weekends and public holidays from 8am – 5pm (Saturday), 8am to 4pm (Sunday), extended hours during peak periods are 8am to 6pm (Saturday) and 8am to 5pm (Sunday). A lifeguard service is provided during the weekdays all year round. Times are subject to change.
