THREE DAY CABARITA BEACH HOLIDAY FOR TWO

CABARITA BEACH HOLIDAY FOR TWO

Next up, nurture your creative soul with a visit to Mist Gallery, a sweet art space right on the main street that showcases the stunning works of local artists, from sculptors and painters to ceramicists and glasswork with regularly changing exhibitions and art classes run by Tweed artists.

Head back to Halcyon House to round out the easy ways of today, sipping a sunset cocktail with a side of sea view, followed by the distinctive flavours of Chef Jason Barratt at Halcyon’s much-awarded and Chef Hatted restaurant, Paper Daisy.

Day Two

Renewed by yesterday’s day of rest, today is time to feel invigorated in nature. Start with an early morning rise and get your feet in the sand to walk along Cabarita Beach, voted Australia’s Best Beach for 2020.

Reaching the southern end of the beach, take the boardwalk steps up, up, up to reach Norries Headland lookout, rewarding with stunning 360 views out to sea and around to the nearby green Tweed Valley and mountain ranges that were once the rim of an ancient volcano.

Looping back through Cabarita village, replenish with breakfast at Nectar Juice House, where you’ll find a friendly vibe, Insta-worthy interiors and healthy to decadent brekky choices, from cold-pressed juices to locally-made organic sourdough crumpets with lemon curd.

Time to hit the surf! Cabarita Beach is an exposed point break, with reliable surf waves that are sought-after by avid surfers. Grab your boards and paddle out to catch wave after wave.

Grab some take-away lunch in the village and head to nearby Cudgen Nature Reserve for a tranquil lakeside bite. If you’ve brought (or hired) kayaks, the shallow lake is a calm setting to paddle out and immerse in nature.

After all this adventure, retreat back to Halcyon House and rest up before another evening of nourishing goodness in the village.

Start the night right with a pre-dinner sip at popular local hang, The Burrow, a welcoming bar with smiling staff and a cocktail list to keep you quenched.

Step across the main street for another Chef Hatted dining experience at No 35 Kitchen and Bar. The restaurant opened in 2021 and has taken Cabarita, and the national food scene, by storm. With a menu described as Italian-ish, expect to keep coming back for the already iconic local snapper fish finger sandwich, amongst many other delectable Italian inspired dishes.
