at Burleigh Heads
Around 7km south of Surfers, BURLEIGH
HEADS consists of a traffic bottleneck where the highway dodges between the
beach and a rounded headland. Fifty years ago, before the bitumen and paving took over, this was all dense eucalypt and vine forest, the last fragment of which survives as Burleigh Head national park . Entrance is on foot from the car park on the Esplanade, or turn sharply at the lights below the hill just south of the headland for the visitors information centre (daily 9am-4pm; tel 07/5535 3032).
