Conway Beach, Queensland

     George's Diner and Conway Beach, Queensland.

You can click on the link above and see a small video of George's Diner is you wish, it only goes for a few seconds.  There is a caravan park attached to the Diner.

3,000 km from Launceston to Conway Beach so it's a long way from home.  We visited there a few years back whilst staying at Proserpine in Queensland.  See map below. As many of you know we are two people who hop in the car and go for a drive, but we go where our nose leads us, that is what happened this day and we ended up at Conway Beach at George's Diner from Proserpine and had some lunch.
Kite surfing is popular as is fishing, walking along the 2km beach and just relaxing. 


The Diner is done in the 1950's style and so surprised to see it so beautifully done.


















The map shows with stars from Proserpine to Conway Beach, just follow the Stars.

  1. Hello Margaret. I watched the video. The shop feels as though it has stepped out of another era, yet it is still so full of life. You can sense the atmosphere of that time while still enjoying the comforts of today. With all the miles you have traveled and all the experiences you have gathered, you could honestly make a documentary. I always enjoy seeing the new places you share because I truly love reading about and seeing images from different parts of the world. It feels as though I am travelling right alongside you.

  3. I like the diner and the cars, esp. that red pick-up. It would be delightful to take a walk at the beach, with bare feet touching the soft sands and brise on my face.

  5. Oh to be able to travel as freely as that! Spouse and I did that across Europe in a car in the 1970s, and loved every minute of the experience.

    The Qld diner reminded me of the American tables, checked floors, red vinyl and metal chair legs of a much earlier era.

  6. Dear Margaret, I absolutely love old diners. The warm atmosphere, the comfort food, the checkered floors, the jukebox and the booths.
    Wonderful photos, dear friend. ❤️ Thank you so much for sharing. 😊
