Brown Lake is an easily accessible freshwater lagoon only five minutes drive from Dunwich. Natural bushland and wildflowers surround the lake, and amenities include picnic tables, electric/wood barbecues and toilets. Brown Lake is safe to swim in as it is only tannin from nearby tea trees that can give it a brownish appearance. Because waterways on North Stradbroke Island are highly sensitive to pollutants, visitors are advised not to use soap or detergent in or near the lake. Power boats and jet-skis are also prohibited on Brown Lake.
