  This is a beautiful area. When you get up to the lighthouse area it is just an amazing view looking towards Kingscliffe. There are a few trees to get under for shade,take a picnic lunch. We enjoyed watching the surfers and saw a pod of dolphins.

  Fingal head with its gorgeous lighthouse is absolutely amazing. Its quiet, 10 minutes further than the Gold coast that is packed. White, pristine beaches stretching for miles. We bypassed coolangatta and other main beaches to head down here a few time. So great and The sheeoak shack with live music restaurant and bar under the sheeoak tree is really cool.

  When crossing the border between QLD and NSW along the Tweet River most people take the M 1 and miss out this beautiful lookout with the lighthouse. Take the exit towards Kingscliff, but instead of going there, drive directly to Fingal Heads, which is south of the Tweed River. Park your car directly near the Headland and walk 10 minutes over these rocks and take your time: You will be highlt rewarded, as this is one of the best lookouts along the NSW coast, looking south onto the bay of Kingscliff and looking north towards the Gold Coast, which stretches about 60 km north towards Stradbroke Island.

  A short walk to a small historic light house (1878) with some information signs about its history. There are about 40 wooden steps to climb. The track is easy and meanders through coastal trees. The track also has a diversion off to the right and takes you down to Dreamtime beach, a good surf beach. View of Cook Island, Point Danger and Kingscliffe. There is also an unusual rock formation with pillars but be care full near the edge, it is not fenced at all. Keep a close watch on little kids.

  This is an excellent way to just chill, the light house is an easy walk from the road that offers an amazing ocean views. It is more than likely that you will spot several dolphins and during the wale season you have an extremely good change to see wales also.

  Worth a look. After a nice drive alongside the Tweed River there's a small car park near the headland. There's a track of about 300m to the headland, not wheelchair accessible as there are about 20 steps, also ground is quite uneven, especially on the headland. Great views of the southern Gold Coast and northern NSW beached and, of course, a chance to look at the old lighthouse which is still in use. Good information boards at the top too. The 5 minutes walk can be made longer if you start looking for the birds in the trees, there are a lot of banksias in flower so the honey eaters were prominent. At low tide you get a good view of the causeway.

  The drive to Fingal along the river is a pleasant contrast to the hustle of the Gold Coast and the Tweed area. Reaching the lighthouse is easy and the view is magnificent. There is a sense in Fingal of being in an earlier decade which is peaceful and more tranquil than the present. Well worth a visit

  It's an easy walk to the headland and light house along a sandy pandanus lined track. It is only 5-10 minute walk from the car park.There are steps involved and no structured paths when you are at the lighthouse, so not wheelchair friendly.The views from the headland are just lovely, looking over to Cook Island and down the coast to Kingscliff. We sat for ages watching a pod of dolphins and numerous whales.
