The turquoise blue water shimmered under the bright sun while I walked on the sandy beach, tanning. The warmth was comforting on a cold winter day. Located along the east coastline in Central Queensland, 26 Km away from Gladstone, Tannum Sands beach is a calm picturesque destination that’s definitely worth a visit.


Beach Arts Music Market, brings the Millenium Esplanade to life every month with hundreds of swarming people. A row of gazebos displayed artsy trinkets, paintings, aromatic candles and soaps. I spent the evening lazing on my chair listening to live music and munching on churros.
