After a five-year absence, the Kirra eagle will shortly return to its perch.
First erected on Kirra headland in 1983 to commemorate Coolangatta’s centenary, the metal sculpture was only intended to last twenty years. It remained there almost twice as long, finally being removed in 2021.
The new sculpture comes at a cost of $300,000 and is an exact replica.
The eagle will return to Kirra Hill mid-May.
