Redcliffe City & Redcliffe Peninsula

Redcliffe City

The City of Redcliffe is on a 37 square kilometre peninsula, approximately 35 north of Brisbane and convenient to the Gateway Arterial Road and Brisbane International Airport. 

You can get to Redcliffe by road from the south by crossing the Hornibrook Highway (the longest bridge in the southern hemisphere), west from Pine Rivers and Caboolture along Anzac Avenue or from the north through Deception Bay. There is no rail access to Redcliffe even though locals have been fighting for one for many years.

The population is about 50,000 but more than 1 million tourists visit the city every year. These are mainly day trippers from Brisbane and the surrounding area. In recent years a number of high-rise units have been catering for commuters and holiday-makers. The front at Redcliffe has excellent footpaths, cycleways and children's playgrounds. Redcliffe City contains the suburbs of Redcliffe, Clontarf, Kippa-Ring, Margate, Rothwell, Scarborough, and Woody Point.
