Brunswick Catchment streams

The Brunswick River runs from the north-western corner of the catchment, out to sea at Brunswick Heads.

In the north of the catchment, Lacks Creek drains Middle Pocket and Marshalls Creek drains The Pocket area. These two creeks join north of New Brighton to form the North Arm of the Brunswick River in the centre of the catchment.

Mullumbimby Creek drains into the Brunswick River at Mullumbimby, and Pipeclay Creek drains the Myocum area into Kings Creek which joins the Brunswick River east of Mullumbimby forming the Main Arm. In the south, Tyagarah Creek and several smaller drainage lines drain into Simpsons Creek which joins the North and Main Arms of the Brunswick River at Brunswick Heads.
