Redcliffe

Redcliffe is a beachside suburb on a peninsula jutting into Moreton Bay with sandy shores and a prominent jetty. The area features multiple waterfront parks and recreational spaces spread along the eastern edge facing the bay.

Queensland's first European settlement was founded here in 1824 but abandoned after less than a year. The colonists relocated to Brisbane, which became the region's new center.

The Ningy Ningy people shaped this place for thousands of years through their ceremonies and connection to the land. Today, visitors can see echoes of this heritage in local names and the way the community honors these roots.

A train station connects the suburb to Brisbane's center with regular services taking around one hour. Visitors can easily find parking near the beaches and explore most areas on foot.

The Bee Gees performed their first public concert here in 1958, launching what would become one of the world's most successful music careers. This early performance took place before the brothers achieved international fame.
