Kewarra Beach, Queensland

Another Beach we have visited on our travels is Kewarra Beach in Queensland some 3441 km (2138.14 miles) from home here in Launceston. 

Kewarra Beach is a coastal suburb of Cairns in the Cairns Region and a 20 minute drive from Cairns. There are approximately 6,133 people living in the area.
The area was primarily used for growing sugar cane until the suburb was developed in the 1970s and 90s.  The western side of the highway was developed with a golf course (Paradise Palms) with housing to the north and south.

These photos were taken in the wintertime and Kewarra Beach is in the tropics.

  2. Kewarra Beach looks like such a peaceful place, and I love that you included a little history rather than just showing the scenery. The fact that these photos were taken in winter but the beach still has that tropical feel is such a nice reminder of how different Queensland is from Tasmania.

  3. What a beautiful place. It reminds me of the beaches in South Africa with their wide open skies and endless horizons. Beaches in my corner of England seem far more developed and built up, but they too have a sense of beauty
