Point Vernon

Tucked away at the quieter end of Hervey Bay, Point Vernon is the region’s “blue ribbon” suburb, offering a coastal lifestyle surrounded by ocean. Known for its relaxed pace and stunning natural beauty, this picturesque area is the perfect place to enjoy the finest aspects of the Fraser Coast.

A standout attraction is Sunset Point, located at the start of Hervey Bay’s esplanade. As the name suggests, this spot showcases some of the most breathtaking sunsets in the area. At certain times of the year, lucky visitors may even witness turtles hatching on the sands, an unforgettable experience.

The suburb boasts a strong sense of community, supported by local gems like Brew and View Cafe, where you can sip your coffee while enjoying incredible bay vistas, and the much-loved Point Vernon Takeaway, famed for its calamari. Gatakers Bay is another highlight, featuring a boat ramp and a popular venue for weddings and events.

Homes in Point Vernon range from low-set brick houses ideal for retirees and families, to modern architecturally designed residences along The Esplanade. Streets like Mant Street and Long Street are particularly sought-after due to their prime locations close to the water.

With its natural charm, friendly atmosphere and premium coastal setting, Point Vernon is a truly wonderful place to call home.
