Cylinder Beach Camping Ground sits on North Stradbroke Island (Minjerribah), Queensland, a short trip from Brisbane.

The shady campground faces one of the island's most iconic surf beaches, with a direct north orientation and a sunny outlook that offers protection from prevailing winds.

Its location near Point Lookout makes it a favourite with families, who take advantage of the beach's relatively smaller waves for swimming, snorkelling, and surfing, with cafes, restaurants, and shops close at hand.

Camping on the island requires a permit and advance booking through Minjerribah Camping, which manages this and several other designated campgrounds across the island.
