Tide Times
• Always check the tide charts before driving on the beach.
• Beach driving: It is illegal to drive on any beach one hour
either side of high tide on North Stradbroke Island. Fines will
be issued to anyone found driving at these times.
• Point Lookout: Deduct one and a half hours from the tide
time at the Brisbane bar (this is the time shown in the daily
paper and on this calendar) for the correct high and low tide
on main beach.
For example: 10.30am Low Tide at Bar = 9.00am at Main Beach.
• Amity Point: Deduct half an hour for the correct high
and low tide times for Amity and Flinders Beach.
For example: 10.30am Low Tide at the Bar
= 10.00am at Amity and Flinders Beach.
Tips for Four
Wheel Driving
• Beaches are considered a road under Queensland
legislation, therefore road rules apply. Speed limits for
Flinders are 40km/hr and 60km/hr on Main.
• Use formed tracks only, never make new tracks and
stay off dune vegetation – it keeps the dunes in place.
• Lower tyre pressure makes driving on sand safer and
easier – consult your tyre supplier for correct tyre pressures
for your vehicle. Don’t forget to re-inflate your tyres when
driving on bitumen.
