Suburb Property Profile: Victoria Point, QLD 4165

Located approximately 30–37km southeast of Brisbane's CBD, Victoria Point sits within Redland City, projecting north-easterly into Moreton and Redland Bays. The fertile Redlands soil attracted farm settlers here in the late 19th century, growing pineapples, bananas and vegetables, and a school first opened at the site in 1877. From a population of just 600 in the mid-1950s, the suburb has grown into a substantial bayside community, with a genuine gateway role to nearby Coochiemudlo Island. Here's our comprehensive guide to the area.

Local Amenities

Victoria Point's foreshore and natural landscape are a genuine drawcard, with Thompson's Beach offering safe, shallow-sloping swimming for children, and regular ferries departing from Victoria Point Jetty for the short trip to Coochiemudlo Island. The 85-hectare Point Halloran conservation area, acquired by the former Shire Council in 1990 to prevent canal-estate development, protects a mixed bushland-wetland area along with an egret colony wetland nearby. Eprapah, home to the Charles S. Snow Scout Environment Training Centre, adds further bushland for environmental education, and two boat ramps plus a Volunteer Marine Rescue unit support the suburb's strong boating culture.
