It is one of two tourist information centres on the Redcliffe Peninsula, the other is Redcliffe Visitor Information Centre located at Redcliffe Jetty.

Of the two visitor information centres, Clontarf has a larger building. The building was purposely built and designed in a shape to resemble a pelican (although I never thought of it looking like a pelican myself).

The centre has many volunteers to help you with finding information with local knowledge, as well as brochures and maps.

Located at Pelican Park , the volunteers at the centre provide a photo opportunity with the local pelican population. Pelican feeding is at 10am every day.

Address: Hornibrook Esplanade, Clontarf, Queensland.
