Lead by head chef, co-owner and US-native Jess Hayes the beachside restaurant offers an eclectic mix of American favourites with a fresh, refined twist.  Slow roasted pork shoulder with polenta and peach chutney, vegan mac and cheese with garlic crumb and maple chili chicken wings. Their absolute must eat though, has to be the KFC - Kirra fried cauliflower. Grandma’s chocolate pie is melt-in-your mouth amazing!  Tipple-wise, their mixologist is slinging epic cocktails, like the Thruster made with gin, blueberry, tonic and rosemary.

Whale Watching from the headlands Whale watching season typically runs from May to October when thousands of humpback whales migrate north from Antarctica, passing up and back down the coast. You don’t need to fork out big bucks to get a glimpse, you can try your luck for free from one of the elevated headlands along the coast as whales have a tendency to come in quite close to shore. Some of the best naturally elevated viewpoints include Point Danger, Greenmount, Kirra Hill, Currumbin Rocks, Tumgun Lookout within Burleigh Heads National Park, North Burleigh/Miami headland. Look out for the big spouts of mist that shoot up into the air.

Mount Warning – Wollumbin National Park is located 12km south-west of Murwillumbah, off Kyogle Road. (48kms - 45mins from Kirra Beach Apartments) Mount Warning is the first place in Australia to be touched by the sun each morning! It is also known as Wollumbin meaning 'cloud catcher’ It was named Mount Warning by Captain Cook to warn future mariners of the offshore reefs he encountered in May 1770. A trail to the summit of Mt Warning offers beautiful 360 degree views of the great dividing range from the peak. The 8.8km return walk takes at least 5hrs and is long and steep, with a very strenuous 100m vertical rock scramble using chains, but the views from the top is worth it! The high, exposed summit can attract wild weather and the track shouldn’t be attempted in poor conditions, especially during thunderstorms. In winter, it’s important to start before midday to avoid a dangerous descent in the dark.
