Sailing on Moreton Bay

 | By Seamus on 1/7/2017 10:11:23 PM | Views (1120)
MORETON BAY
On East Coast Marina’s doorstep is the fabulous cruising grounds of Moreton Bay and its southern islands between Brisbane and the Gold Coast.

At the north-eastern end of the bay there are some magnificent anchorages off the western side of Moreton Island such as the famous Tangalooma Wrecks, Lucinda Bay, Sand Hills and Days Gutter. This is about a 20 mile 3-4 hour leisurely reaching sail in predominantly south-easterly winds to the Tangalooma leads from East Coast Marina.



For a short sail north-east there lies the historic islands of St Helena and Mud, and directly east is Green Island. These are great day trips for a sail with a lunch stopover before returning to East Coast Marina.

Further south on the western side of North Stradbroke Island you find the peace and tranquility of Myora, with its freshwater spring, or a quiet anchorage a little further south called One Mile.  Across the way is the fabulous beach at Horseshoe Bay on the southern side of Peel Island, a lovely windward sail in a southeaster, and you have the perfect protection of the Lazaret on the northern side.



The most protected part of the bay for those seeking calmer waters is surrounded by a series of islands right down to the Gold Coast Broadwater. The inhabited islands include Coochiemudlo, Karragarra, Lamb, Macleay and Russell. In this tranquil waterway you will find protection no matter where the wind is blowing from, and many anchorages to stop and enjoy along the way.

Many say that Moreton Bay is Australia’s best keep secret when it comes to boating grounds.
