A pocket guide to Tweed Heads, street by street

On a map, Tweed Heads looks like one place. It does not feel like one once you have spent a few weekends here. Within a short drive you can go from waterfront streets near the beach to family homes around the shops, canal homes and hillside views.

Here is how we would describe the main pockets. This is a description rather than a list of places to buy, because the right pocket depends entirely on your budget, your timing and how you want to live.
