Located on the Tweed Coast at Hastings Point, Hastings Cove is a great base to enjoy family holidays, with easy day trips and drives to Byron Bay, Ballina, Tweed Heads, the Gold Coast and the Northern Rivers and Gold Coast hinterlands. But the biggest attraction would have to be Cudgera Creek estuary, which is a popular haven for family fun, and has direct access to the beach.
As well as providing day use picnic and BBQ facilities along the foreshore, the creek offers ample opportunities for exploration with stand-up paddling, kayaking, snorkelling, swimming Whale Watching and fishing among favourite activities. You can also discover the ambience of laid back coastal villages, and enjoy the alfresco dining in Pottsville, Cabarita, Kingscliff and Murwillumbah, or sample the famous weekend markets the region is renowned for.
