Noosa Head is a 50 m high basalt headland located 2 km east of Noosa Beach. Between the beach and head is a 3 km long rocky shoreline backed by the steep slopes of the Noosa National Park, with a road, car park, then walking track out to the head. In along the base of the north facing slopes are four small pocket beaches. Little Cove (1533) is a 100 m long pocket of north-west facing sand lying just 100 m east of the main Noosa Beach, around small Johnson Point. It is backed by some beachfront houses between the road and the beach, then wooded slopes. Access is difficult, either around rocks at low tide or from the narrow road that clips the northern end of the beach. The beach is backed by a cobble high tide beach, then a veneer of sand which is awash at high tide, together with steps and a small creek in the centre. Waves average less than 0.5 m and rips are rare. read more
