Horseshoe Bay beach

Ultimate guide (December 2024)
Horseshoe Bay is the best beach in Magnetic Island of Australia. There are a lot of palms and plain trees, nice sand with good entry into the water, no waves, but there is a swimming net. Not surprisingly, this is the center of the beach life in the island with the highest amount of tourists. Shore and seabed: sand. [edit]
This beach ranks #2 of the "Best beaches in Townsville"
