brisbane's bayside

The foreshores at Wynnum, Manly and Shorncliffe are the most accessible to Brisbane’s CBD and are popular destinations for barbecues, picnics and water activities like fishing, windsurfing and jet skiing. While Wynnum features the popular esplanade, a delightful wading pool and water park for children, its sister suburb of Manly boasts the delightful Manly Harbour Village foreshore that hosts many fine eateries and a marina full of magnificent yachts. Sandgate is renowned for its architectural history and the flat esplanade that runs along the length of the beach, and like Shorncliffe it is filled with picnic facilities and small charming beach areas.
