Kingscliff to Norries Headland Coastal Walk

Stretching along the Tweed Coast in northern New South Wales, this walking track follows the shoreline from Kingscliff Beach to the rugged outcrop of Norries Head. Walkers pass through pockets of native coastal bushland, sandy stretches, and several vantage points offering wide-reaching views out to sea. It’s a gentle, accessible trail suited to most fitness levels, and during the whale migration season, keen-eyed walkers might spot pods passing offshore.

Along the way, Cabarita Beach makes for a handy stop to grab a bite or a drink before continuing on. Between the salty breeze, rugged cliff scenery, and a track that rarely feels crowded, it’s the kind of walk that rewards you the whole way through. Energetic walkers can push on beyond Norries Head to Hastings Point Lookout, where the general store offers a welcome spot to refuel before heading back.
