We have been told about the Yeppoon Lagoon and we’ve driven past often without realizing it, so when Woody goes to Cooee Bay for a regular blood test he drops me at the lagoon for a look around. The Yeppoon foreshore is a delight. That space between cafes, holiday apartments, boutiques and the golden beach of Keppel Bay is magical for families. Play equipment, water spouts and lawns to laze on stretch for a half kilometre to the Keppel Bay Sailing club and it’s blue and white themed café.

To the south of the club is the lagoon, a series of wading pools, fountains and a large infinity pool set against a backdrop of sparkling Keppel Bay. Trust me I’m not overdoing it. It really does sparkle in the morning sun. There’s also a café for the less active.
