Hobie Beach is a famous spot for swimming, soaking up the sun, and beach games. Situated in Port Elizabeth, along the huge span of coastline that comprises the western edge of the Sunshine Coast, Hobie Beach is a calm haven for city workers who come to visit the beach in their free time.
The beach itself is home to the impressive Shark Rock Pier, which juts its way out in the ocean and creates a fantastic swathe of sand for sun-worshipers to spend their days off – sunbathing or playing a spot of beach volleyball. There are some rock pools which offer an interesting spot for children to learn about marine life, including the starfish and octopus that can be found in the pools at high tide. There’s plenty of cafes and amenities to keep young children entertained, and lifeguards on duty in high season.
