Whether you’re celebrating a special anniversary, planning a cheeky weekend getaway, or just escaping the hustle and bustle, Pacific Palms has romance written all over it.
Sunrise & Sunset at Blueys Beach
Start your day with a peaceful sunrise at Blueys Beach, where golden sands meet rolling waves. Take a hand-in-hand walk along the shore, hunt for seashells, or simply relax with a coffee in hand from one of the nearby cafés. As the day ends, grab a blanket, a bottle of bubbles, and enjoy a sunset picnic on the sand—pure romance!
Surf & Chill at Boomerang Beach
For couples who crave a little adventure, Boomerang Beach is perfect for surfing, bodyboarding, or just splashing in the waves. Even if your balance isn’t Olympic-level, falling off a board together is always good for a laugh. Afterwards, wander along the curved coastline and watch the waves curl into the shore, or grab a bite at a nearby café for brunch or lunch.
Cosy Cafés & Local Flavours
Pacific Palms may be more about the beach and nature than the food, but it has local favourites that are perfect for couples:
- Drift and Kembali Café in Blueys – coffee, brunch, and casual vibes just steps from the sand.
- Frothy Coffee at Smiths Lake – the perfect spot for a morning pick-me-up before exploring the lake.
- The Recky – live music, pub feeds, and a chilled-out evening with a drink in hand.
Stock up at Blueys Cellar for local wines, cheeses, and ingredients to cook a romantic meal in your holiday home—because sometimes the best date night is a cozy night in.

Paddle & Picnic at Smiths Lake
For calm-water adventures, Smiths Lake is your go-to. Paddle together in a kayak or stand-up paddleboard, watch the local birdlife, and find a secluded spot for a picnic. Stock up at Blueys Cellar with fresh bread, local cheeses, cured meats, and a bottle of wine, then cook a romantic meal in your holiday home—because nothing beats lakeside dining in your pajamas.
