Torquay Front Beach

Torquay Front Beach is a popular patrolled beach located in Torquay, Victoria, Australia. The beach faces due east and stretches for 1 kilometre from Yellow Bluff at its northern end to Point Danger to its south. The beach is popular with families, as the surf is comparably calmer than its counterpart, the adjacent surf beach, with an even calmer section of the beach protected by Point Danger known as Cosy Corner. Geography and features Torquay Front Beach averages waves less than 1 metre, and is ideal for swimming as there are no rips and a shallow sandbar, with a seasonal lifeguard on duty. Many beginner surfers use the beach to practice, and occasionally, during big swell, larger waves make can make their way past Point Danger and toward the beach. History Since the 1860s Torquay and its beaches have been frequented by holidaymakers, and, seeing the popularity of its beaches, the Torquay Improvement Association sought out the Royal Human Society to purchase a lifebuoy for the safety of those at the beach in 1899. In the 1880s people began to erect bathing boxes, akin to those at Brighton, with many of them taking the name of the owner's houses. On May 7 1891, the Canadian vessel Joseph H. Scammell ran aground on the reef at Point Danger. Felix Rosser, a local fisherman, tried to sail out to the boat but was turned away by dangerous conditions, and lit fires along the foreshore and Fishermans Beach to guide the crew if rescuers could not get to the boat in time. The crew, all alive, managed to disembark the following day with calmer conditions. In 1922, the Torquay Life Saving Club was formed, using a rudimentary bathing box and a bell tower. The surf lifesaving club was positioned here as opposed to the official surf beach around the Point as many swimmers rarely ventured into the water at the Back Beach, deeming it treacherous. The surf life saving club later moved to its present location on the surf beach in 1946. See also Great Ocean Road References
Bancoora Beach

Bancoora Beach is a patrolled coastal beach facing the Bass Strait in Breamlea, Victoria, Australia. The beach, named after the SS Bancoora which ran aground on the adjacent Breamlea Beach in 1891, is a popular destination for holidaymakers in the summer, owing to the nearby caravan park, as well as the low-to-moderate surf conditions. The beach area is Public land managed by the City of Greater Geelong. History Several middens containing a variety of shellfish have been found in the dunes, left by the Wathaurong Aboriginal people. By the early 1900s, Breamlea became a popular camping area for holidaymakers, arriving from Geelong and surrounds. The Bancoora Surf Life Saving Club was formed in 1962, and clubrooms were built in 1963. In 1977 the Australian Surf Life Saving Championships was held at Bancoora Beach, but due to very rough surf, the swimming events were moved to Fishermans Beach, Torquay. Geography and features The beach stretches for 1 kilometre, facing south-east. Either end of the beach is marked by basaltic points. Waves are, on average, 1.3 metres, and typically create three rips across the sandbar, which is 80 metres wide. Permanent rips exist against the rocks at the ends of the beach. The southern point, in times of high surf, can create a right-hand point beak. 10 people are rescued each year, on average. Fishing is a popular pastime here, particularly in the rip holes and at the rocky points. The beach is surrounded by vegetated dunes, the vegetation largely consisting of spinifex grass and moonah trees. The beach also sees birds such as the red-capped plover and the Hooded plover, the latter being endangered. Other birds include the migratory double-banded plover from New Zealand and the ruddy turnstone from Russia. A lookout sits on top of the dunes, which overlooks the beach. Access Access to the beach is via Surf Club Lane, which reaches Brealmea Road, the main thoroughfare in and out of the township. The car park is offset behind the beach, with a small sandy track leading to the beach, also used by emergency vehicles.

Howrah Beach

Howrah Beach is a 1.2 km (1 mi) stretch of recreational beach situated along the River Derwent in Howrah, a suburb of Hobart, Tasmania, Australia. The south-facing beach neighbours Bellerive Beach to the west and is bookended by Howrah Point to the east. The beach has views of the Derwent estuary, the neighbouring suburb of Tranmere, Sandy Bay on the western shore, and southern views of South Arm, Tinderbox and the northern tip of Bruny Island. Howrah Beach is backed by a narrow tree-lined reserve and private properties, the Clarence Foreshore Trail, Clarence High School adjoining Wentworth Park, Howrah Community Centre, Howrah Men's Shed and the Sunshine Tennis Club. Environment Howrah Beach consists of two distinct zones, Howrah Beach and Little Howrah Beach, which consists of the south-eastern section. In 1912, a humpback whale calf measuring 4.3 metres (14 ft) beached itself along the Howrah shoreline and was subsequently dissected by local fishermen. Two self-cleaning stormwater traps were installed at the beach in 1997. Little Howrah Beach Little Howrah Beach, is a 200-metre (660 ft) low-energy, low-gradient beach located at the eastern end of the main beach, facing west towards Hobart, which is situated 8.0 kilometres (5 mi) across the Derwent. In 1956, the then-privately owned section of beach came under council scrutiny for the excess removal of beach sand. The southernmost point of the beach is shielded from strong winds by Howrah Point, creating a tranquil and sheltered environment. Following the rear of the beach, Tranmere Road is bordered on either side by a small seawall and a grassy reserve. A boat dock, some low rocks, and private properties are located in the northernmost part of the road. Access Howrah Beach is accessible from the Hobart City Centre via the Tasman Bridge. It is a two hour walk from the CBD, or a single 20 minute metro bus ride. There is dedicated parking at the beach directly off Howrah Road. The beach can be accessed on foot via the Clarence Foreshore Trail. References
Hinsby Beach

Hinsby Beach is a beach along the River Derwent in the Hobart suburb of Taroona, Australia. The south facing beach looks directly out to Storm Bay and the Tasman Sea, with views of the Derwent estuary, the Alum Cliffs, Taroona Shot Tower, the City of Clarence on the eastern shore and Opossum Bay, South Arm. Hinsby Beach is situated between the Alum Cliffs and Taroona Beach. A naturally secluded section of the beach, beyond the rocky south-western outcrop is a zoned naturist beach. History Hinsby Beach has historically been a popular staple of local activity, used for exercise, beach combing, kayaking, sailing, snorkelling, bodyboarding and swimming. Prior to the British colonisation of Tasmania, the land had been occupied for possibly as long as 35,000 years by the semi-nomadic Mouheneener people, a sub-group of the Nuennone, or "South-East tribe". Mouheneener shell middens can be found scattered all along Taroona's foreshores. Extreme weather hit the beach in 2018, causing rough seas to wash salmon farming equipment ashore and the escape of 120,000 atlantic salmon. In 2021, Hinsby Beach was utilised for MONA FOMA celebrations with an installation called Hobart Digs, in which south sea pearls encased in handcrafted boxes by German artist Michael Sailstorfer were buried in the sand and discovered by participants. Environment The steep and narrow 250-metre (820 ft) beach has waves averaging .5 metres (1 ft 8 in) swells and is bookended by a 50-metre (160 ft) collection of boulder rocks at Taroona Beach and the Alum Cliffs, which emerge from sea level to heights between 50–100 metres (160–330 ft) to create a dramatic coastline, stretching for 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) to Tyndall Beach, Kingston Beach. The beach can be viewed from beachside homes along Hinsby Road. Hinsby Beach performs well for water quality within the Derwent estuary for swimming. Access Hinsby Beach is accessible from the Hobart City Centre via the Channel Highway. It is a two hour walk from the CBD, or a 30 minute metro bus ride. There is parking at nearby Jenkins Street, Hinsby Road, Niree Parade and at Taroona Park. The beach can be accessed on foot via the Taroona Foreshore Track.

Malabar Beach

Malabar Beach is a beach in Malabar, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, located to the south of Maroubra Beach and to the north of Little Bay and La Perouse. The Randwick Golf Club is located on the cliffs on the right side and Malabar Headland on the cliffs on the left side. Its sands stretch for about 200 metres. Two boat ramps can be found towards both ends of the beach, as well as a rock pool further south, below Randwick Golf Club. History Malabar Beach was previously known as Long Bay beach. Following a petition by local residents, the new name was gazetted on 29 September 1933, following a shipwreck of the MV Malabar in 1931. There also have been four other shipwrecks on the headland - the St Albans in 1882, Try One in 1947 and SS Goolgwai in 1955 (and an unnamed barge in 1955). Malabar Beach suffered issues with water pollution that affected health of the swimmers. For example, there was an outbreak of typhoid in one family who swam at Malabar Beach regularly. In 1957, 300 residents had a protest meeting in Cromwell Park nearby to raise the issue of the beach water pollution to the Sydney Water Board. In 1992 a marine outfall started pumping the sewage 4.2 km out to the sea, and water quality improved dramatically. Randwick Council lifeguards started patrolling the beach, and a playground and barbecue were installed in Cromwell Park. Geography The rocky headland on the left of the bay or the cliff, protect the beach from the waves so the water is very calm so swimming, snorkelling, scuba diving, kayaking and paddle boarding is easy to do at Malabar Beach although it gets deep suddenly. The beach is also shaped like a dolphin. Dangers In the waters swim colourful fish but also small stingrays and blue ringed octopuses which lurk the waters. Malabar Beach is not patrolled with lifeguards or lifesavers although there is a lifeguard tower there. References

Manning Lake

Manning Lake is a freshwater lake in the suburbs of Hamilton Hill and Spearwood, 18 kilometres (11 mi) south-west of the central business district of Perth, the capital of Western Australia. It is located within Manning Park, which is part of Beeliar Regional Park. Overview In the local Nyungar language, the lake was originally called Dgilgie's Lake, which was altered to Devil's Lake by early European settlers, the Manning family and, in turn, changed in pronunciation again to Davilak Lake by the local Aboriginal people. Lucius Manning built an early homestead north of the lake in the 1850s, and a subsequent one, Davilak House, west of the lake. The latter was constructed by convict labour in 1866 and abandoned after the Second World War and burned down in the 1950s, with the remnants still visible today. Manning constructed another house, for his daughter Azelia Ley, on the west side of the lake, north of Davilak House, which is now the state heritage listed Azelia Ley Homestead, a museum. The vegetation around the lake consists of some large tuart trees and swamp paper bark, something now quite rare in the City of Cockburn. West of the lake lies Manning Ridge, which has a number of lookouts accessible by stairs.

Orchid Beach

Orchid Beach (deutsch: Orchideenstrand) ist eine Feriensiedlung im Parish of Wathumba auf der Sandinsel K’gari in Queensland, Australien. Der Strand liegt an der Marloo Bay im Nordosten der Insel, rund 35 Kilometer südlich von Sandy Cape, ihrem nördlichsten Punkt. In der näheren Umgebung liegen mehrere Sehenswürdigkeiten wie die Kaps Waddy Point und Indian Head mit den Champagne Pools im Südosten oder den Ngkala Rocks und dem Ocean Lake weiter nördlich. Geschichte Orchid Beach wurde in den frühen 1960er Jahren vom Baron Sir Reginald Barnwell gegründet, der eine Fluglinie von Maryborough nach dem damaligen Fraser Island betrieb. Er beabsichtigte, mit seinen Flugzeugen am Sandstrand von Orchid Beach zu landen und unweit davon ein Resort zu bauen. Da das unwegsame Gelände der Middle Rocks den Transport von Baumaterial zum Strand erschwerte, entstanden zunächst einfache Lodges, in denen sich die eingeflogenen Angler selbst versorgen mussten. Erst 1968 konnte mit dem Bau der großen Ferienanlage Orchid Beach Resort begonnen werden, das 1969 eröffnet wurde. Orchid Beach besteht heute mehrheitlich aus Ferienhäusern. Es gibt eine Tankstelle und einen Laden. Der Strand dient als Landepiste für Kleinflugzeuge. Bei Waddy Point und an einem nördlichen Strandabschnitt besteht die Möglichkeit zu campieren.
