Blue Lagoon Lake- The salt water may be surrounding the Moreton Island; however the presence of a freshwater lake is like owing a treasured possession. The Blue Lagoon Lake is a freshwater lake and is fed by the rain water that gets soaked by the sand grains. Dragonflies, damselflies, caddisflies, algae, shrimp, and crayfish largely comprise the flora and fauna at Blue Lagoon. Many Oyestercatcher birds can also be spotted near lake as their favourite shellfishes are also found here. Blue Lagoon is thus a great spot for bird watching and the clean freshwater also makes it a cooling of location. And hey, Blue Lagoon is not actually blue-but brown owing to the presence of tea tree oils infused in the lake. 

Honeymoon Bay- Lying near the Cape Moreton, Honeymoon Bay is a great picnic spot. One can enjoy some calm and soothing moments here as the place is not at all overcrowded. Shaped as half-moon, this picturesque beach is extremely pleasant spot and one can also go for a refreshing swimming session- but be careful not to go too far as there may be hidden rocks, rips and large waves.
