About TWEED HEADS

Tweed Heads is located 862 km north of Sydney on the NSW-Queensland border. The Tweed Shire is bounded by the ocean to the east, the Tweed Range to the west, the McPherson Range to the north, the Burringbar Range to the south, and the Nightcap Range to the south-east. These formations are the remnants of an extinct shield volcano. The Bundjalung and Midjungbal Aboriginal people occupied the area which was originally lush, sub-tropical rainforest. Lieut. John Oxley discovered the Tweed River and named it after the River Tweed which forms the England/Scotland border. Timber getters were the first Europeans in the area, followed by settlers who were attracted to the rich volcanic soils of the region.

The Tweed is a popular retirement centre. Tourism, dairy farming, cane, bananas, fruit and vegetables, and a commercial fishing industry all contribute to the local economy.

Some of the many local attractions include excellent golf courses, swimming and surf beaches, recreational fishing, the Captain Cook Memorial and Lighthouse, and the Minjungbal Aboriginal Cultural Centre.
