The Strand
Walk The Strand’s Townsville waterfront promenade for sea views, gardens and public recreation spaces. The long, level setting works well before or after a museum visit.

The Strand is the easiest place to experience Townsville’s everyday relationship with the sea. Follow a section of the promenade for views toward Magnetic Island, then stop at a shaded public area as time allows. Facilities such as swimming areas can change status, so check current council notices rather than making one feature the sole reason for the visit.
What to look for
The waterfront promenade faces Magnetic Island.
Gardens and public recreation spaces line Townsville’s seafront.
Useful to know
Check current council notices for water-feature and swimming access.
