The park area is hilly and is about 100 meters above sea level, eight kilometers away from the coast. The Coombabah Creek and Saltwater Creek flow through the park. The soils are clay and limestone.

In the vicinity of the Southern Moreton Bay Islands National Park, Tamborine, Sarabah and Burleigh Head lie.

The park consists of open woodland with various species of eucalyptus and some dry rainforest in the valleys.

This forest is home to a wealth of indigenous and introduced animals.
