Second Beach
Great Keppel Island, Queensland
About
Second Beach on Great Keppel Island's north coast is a hidden gem that rewards those willing to make the journey. This secluded stretch of sand is only accessible via boat or by walking around the rocky headland from Svendsons Beach during low tide, making it one of the island's more private spots.
The beach is characterized by its pristine white sand and crystal-clear waters, typical of the Southern Great Barrier Reef region. Framed by native bushland and rocky outcrops, it offers excellent snorkeling opportunities along its fringing reef, where tropical fish dart through coral formations close to shore.
Due to its limited accessibility and complete lack of facilities, Second Beach retains a raw, untouched feel. Visitors need to be mindful of tide times if planning to walk from Svendsons Beach, and should come fully prepared with water, snacks, and sun protection. The beach's isolated nature makes it perfect for those seeking a quiet escape from the island's more frequented spots.
