Tea Tree Bay is an un-patrolled beach, therefore, swim with extreme caution. Known for steady currents and rips, pay and attention and try not to go out too far into the water. For the surfers, Rocky Point nearby is a surfing hotspot, best for more experienced surfers due to the conditions. Tea Tree Bay makes up one of four bays within Noosa National Park. The walking tracks on the journey will take you on a scenic trail along the coastline with beautiful lookouts, including Boiling Pot and Dolphin Point. Tea Tree Bay is the first bay you will pass by on the Coastal Walk, and while it is still within minutes of Noosa Main Beach, it is a quiet pocket worth exploring, tucked away from the bustle of Hastings Street.
