Margate Beach

On Margate Parade yet another pristine beach awaits you on the Redcliffe Peninsula. The golden sand and sheltered waters make this a favourite dipping spot.

Boasting the longest mainland stretch of sand alongside a two-kilometre timber boardwalk makes Margate an ideal spot to feel the sand between your toes. The location of the boardwalk next to the beach makes it perfect for walkers, cyclists and little people on scooters.

To the northern end of the beach sits the quaint Scotts Point swimming pavilion, built-in 1937 this is a peak into beach life of a bygone era. Adding to the pleasant ambience are the many ancient Norfolk Pines that line the Esplanade along Margate, Redcliffe. These serve to remind us of the first settlers on the Redcliffe Peninsula who had the forethought to plant seedlings more than 150 years ago. The shade provided by the canopy of the huge branches offers protection from the sun in the summer months.

Margate Beach is very well-equipped with quality BBQ facilities, pack sausages, onions and bread, fill your esky full of cold drinks and bring your friends, or family down for a day out in the sun. Sit back and enjoy the sea air and the picturesque views of Moreton Island and Moreton Bay as you gaze out over sandy Margate Beach.
