Grasstree Beach suburb profile

Grasstree Beach is a small coastal suburb on Queensland’s central coast north of Mackay, centred on a broad sandy shoreline facing the Coral Sea. The area has a sleepy, low-density feel with mostly single-storey, beach-style homes set among coastal vegetation, a mix of permanent residents and holiday houses, and an overall village atmosphere. Days revolve around the foreshore, with swimming, fishing, boating and long walks on the sand the common pastimes, while more routine shopping, schools and health services are found in nearby urban centres. The suburb offers quiet seaside living and open water outlooks rather than urban convenience.
