ALMA BAY PARK

Public BBQ

Alma Bay, on Magnetic Island, is a breathtakingly beautiful and small beach encircled by stunning rocks and lush trees. The beach is well maintained, featuring a picturesque white sandy stretch and crystal clear, warm waters perfect for swimming. Large rocky headlands on both sides provide a sense of privacy. Excellent amenities include modern facilities such as toilets, showers, and a play area, along with convenient access to specialty shops and bus stops. The bay is family-friendly with a sheltered swimming area, lifeguard services, and a safe environment for kids. Moreover, it is an ideal spot for snorkeling and houses a diverse marine life. The beach is in proximity to a lawn picnic area under a canopy of shade trees, the Arcadia Hotel, and various food outlets. Despite its popularity, the beach preserves its tranquility, making it a delightful place for relaxation and nature appreciation.
