What better way to clear your head than an enchanting walk by the Bayside? is a magical walkway, winding for 530 metres through mangrove forest along Wynnum foreshore. The boardwalk reaches to the edge of the mangroves with viewing platforms stretching into Moreton Bay. Each visit feels different, as the mood and smells change depending on the tides and weather - it's well worth coming back on different days. The mangroves provide shade and cover, so it's an excellent walk, rain or shine.

An ideal family outing, the Boardwalk is suitable for strollers and for toddlers on foot or on bikes. The Mangrove forest provides a unique environment for wading birds, some migrating from as far as Mongolia and Siberia. Children will enjoy spotting ibis and pelicans and listening for crabs crackling in the mud.


Access is easy with plenty of car park spaces at the start point in Eleanora Park. There is also a dog park here. For an extended family outing, options include continuing to Pandanus Beach and the excellent playpark at Wynnum Pier (1.75 km along the foreshore) or enjoying freshly cooked fish and chips in Wynnum or Manly.

Distance: 1.5Km round trip
Difficulty: Easy - suitable for strollers or wheelchairs
Parking: Eleanora Park carpark
