Moffat Beach Walking Tour - Sunday

The period following WW2 represents a social phenomenon. The hardships and rationing following the war ended; there was full employment, and people could afford holidays, they had cars and roads were improving. There was great optimism and also a building boom.

One outlet for this energy was the continuing story of Australia's love affair with the beach. Caloundra, due to its proximity to Brisbane, Ipswich, and Toowoomba, was a key destination for holiday makers. These were the formative years for Moffat Beach, the suburb was predominantly bushland in 1940 but was overflowing with holiday houses 20 years later. Explore Moffat Beach's heritage and architecture in this 1.5 hr walk and talk with local architect and heritage guru Rodger Todd.
