The Strand

North Ward Townsville, Queensland 4810

While Australia is known for its evergreen backdrop and a contour of wildlife, there's also another reason why people from around the globe travel far and wide to reach Townsville, and that's all due to The Strand. A seaside foreshore that is home to a structurized jetty, a recreational park, an orangy sunset that is to die for, some restaurants, cafes, and pools. Many events have already taken place in this coveted hidden treasure of Townsville, with panoramic views of the Port of Townsville, Magnetic Island, and the Cape Cleveland. Soak up under the heat of the sun at Townsville Beach, or discover the beauty of the historical buildings found in the area. A highly-valued neighborhood in Townsville, The Strand is more like home to tourists who frequent the place, enjoying the Oceanway pavements, the rockpool, the Tobruk Memorial Baths, and the Strand Park. Every Friday of each month, Strand Park throws a Nightmarket party where people can mingle and have fun, and for a good cause.
