Hideaway Bay suburb profile

Hideaway Bay is a small coastal town in the Whitsunday Region of North Queensland. It fronts the Coral Sea with outlooks toward the Whitsunday Islands, giving the area a distinctly maritime feel. The suburb is low density, made up of beach houses, holiday units and a modest number of permanent residences, so the community swells in holiday periods. Daily life centres on the water, with boating, fishing and quiet beach walks popular pastimes and a compact foreshore that acts as the local gathering point. Local services are limited, with larger centres a short drive away for shopping and schools.
