Point Lookout

Point Lookout in Queensland sits on the eastern coast of Australia along the Coral Sea. It is best known as a coastal access point and gateway for diving around North Stradbroke Island and nearby reefs, with a small number of local dive centers offering guided dives, reef exploration, and introductory courses. The area features typical warm, clear coastal waters, with sandy to rocky habitats and a variety of reef life close to shore. Given the modest number of centers and sites in the vicinity, diving here is practical for day trips and local dives rather than a major international dive destination. Nearby water access also supports snorkeling and coastal exploration.
