Things to do in Tweed Heads
A perfect, laidback companion to the bustle of the Gold Coast, Tweed Heads has been charming tourists for years and remains a fantastic holiday destination with an array of activities for the visitor.
The beaches of the area offer great surfing and swimming. The Tweed River and its estuary are a popular fishing and boating spot and the surfing Mecca of the Gold Coast is just up the road.
A cruise along the Tweed River is a must as is a trip to the peak of the Razorback Lookout which offers a sweeping vista of Tweed Heads and the Gold Coast.
To the south of Tweed Heads, there are a number of quaint, seaside villages including Kingscliff, Cabarita and Hastings Point. The surrounding hinterland is also worth exploring with tropical rainforests and spectacular peaks.
History of Tweed Heads
The Tweed Valley was first settled in the 1840's by timber cutters who plied their trade in the lush forests of the area. Following the logging industry, farmers settled in the valley and grew tropical fruit and sugar cane. Tweed Heads also supported a large fishing fleet from an early stage. The name Tweed comes from the River Tweed which marks the border between Scotland and England.
Located just to the south of the Gold Coast, Tweed Heads primarily now relies on the tourism and hospitality industries.
