We tried to sail to Double Island Point but the wind died on us so we ended up motorsailing much of the way. We're told an anchorage can be made behind Noosa Head, but we wanted to get further as we were feeling behind on our schedule to get to Darwin for the Rally. The anchorage behind Double Island Point is well protected from all winds with some south in them, but you need to watch out for the (usually visible) rock 1.1nm off the point. We had no problems sailing inside this rock, passing just outside the shallows about 0.6nm off the point.
