Mon Repos Beach

Mon Repos is home to Australia's largest concentration of nesting sea turtles and is home to the Mon Repos Turtle Centre, which is located just a short walk to the beach. Mon Repos caters for everyone from young families to the grey nomads. You will find historical, environmental and leisure activities at Mon Repos. From mid-October to the end of April (during Turtle Season) , public access to the beach is restricted from 6pm to 6am. Mon Repos is well known in aviation history as the location of Bert Hinkler's first hangar trial flights in 1912. Known as one of Queensland's longest beaches, and the most undeveloped, you will find basalt rocks bordering the beach and a rocky outcrop midway up the beach. A gorgeous location to capture the sunrises of the region.
