Nundah Creek and Cabbage Tree Creek form a tidal estuary system within the Boondall Wetlands, flowing through residential and industrial areas of northern Brisbane into Moreton Bay. The primary and most recommended access point for paddlers is the Sinbad Street boat ramp at Shorncliffe, which offers parking, toilets, and picnic areas. An alternative launch point is at the boat ramp on the corner of Allpass Parade and Yundah Street, also in Shorncliffe. From these launches, paddlers can explore both Nundah Creek and the larger Cabbage Tree Creek, which is noted for its extensive mangrove systems. The area is characterized by a significant number of moored vessels, including yachts, catamarans, prawn trawlers, and some derelict boats, indicating active and historic boat traffic. Paddlers share the water with these vessels and should be mindful of channel traffic, especially near the yacht clubs at the entrance. The environment is estuarine and saltwater, with the entire paddling experience being heavily influenced by the tide. Planning around tidal stages is essential, as a high tide can prevent passage under bridges, such as the Sandgate Road bridge, while a low tide exposes extensive mudflats. The area is popular for birdwatching, with frequent sightings of cormorants, ibises, egrets, herons, and pelicans among the mangroves and on structures. Water quality and cleanliness are noted concerns, with historical trash accumulation, including items like shopping trolleys, bicycles, and significant amounts of glass bottles, being reported in the mangrove areas upstream, particularly near the Gateway Motorway bridge. The paddling vibe is generally calm and scenic within the creeks, but paddlers should be prepared for potential wind exposure once past the sheltered creek mouths opening into Moreton Bay.
