For a low-key dip on Macleay Island, head to Pat's Park, where Redland City Council lists a bay swimming enclosure.
Make it a water-focused stop
The park is also included in the Council canoe-launch list for high tide, so check local conditions and bring the right equipment if you are planning to paddle.
Check the Council swimming-enclosure information (opens in a new tab) and canoe-launch list (opens in a new tab) before your visit.
