Beach days
As the sunlight warms your skin, don’t miss the chance to have a dip in the patrolled waters of Bokarina Beach (the tower and service operates between September and May on weekends and during school holidays). This pristine spot provides a stunning stretch of coastline that’s ideal for swimming, water sports, fishing, and leisurely waterline strolls.
Markets and more
Come Saturday, you’ll want to grab your basket and start your day at Kawana Waters Farmers Markets. As you sip a hot coffee, get set for the ultimate weekend picnic by loading up on local produce, cheeses, and freshly baked bread. Once fuelled with market goodies, lace up the sneakers and set out on a stroll along the picturesque Coastal Pathway that stretches from Bokarina Beach to Warana Beach.
Pizza, please
Brunch with the best and soak up the trendy coastal atmosphere at Stoa Bokarina, where plates of bruschetta, pumpkin toast and house-made waffles keep the hunger at bay. Later, satisfy your pizza cravings with a feed at local favourite Bocca Italian, where you’ll have no trouble loading up on their house-made bread—crafted from the same hand-stretched dough as their pizzas.
For the sweet tooth
After indulging in Italian classics and brunch delights, head next door to artisan ice-creamery Wallace & Wood for a scoop of their traditional French custard ice-cream made from local Maleny milk. The biggest challenge of the day will be deciding on your favourite flavour!
Spend the night
If you don’t want to miss Bokarina’s spectacular beach sunrises, plan a stay at some of the trendy apartments nearby. Soak up the ocean views and coastal design at Zinc Bokarina's trendy modern apartments, or head around the corner to Oceanus—located just a seven-minute walk from the beach. You’ll feel right at home amongst their luxury three-bedroom penthouse which offers interrupted views over forestry and white-water surf.
