Petersen Creek weaves its way from the hinterland, through coastal dunes and onto the Geoffrey Bay foreshore.

Restoration Project

Downstream from Hayles Avenue, most of Petersen Creek is on public land. The creek vegetation is increasingly dominated by environmental weeds. ACC continues to engage the community in replacement of environmental weeds with native vegetation. This will improve habitat, corridors, bank stability, beach sand supply and water quality in the GBR World Heritage Area.

Endeavour Falls

As a summer and wet season favourite, Endeavour Falls transform from a sleepy trickle to a raging force in wet season. The small rock pools are a great way to cool off in the heat while enjoying nature at it's best.
