Frenchmans Beach
In the late 19th century, four adventurous men set sail from the French-speaking islands of the South Pacific, heading westward. They eventually landed on a beach that would be named in their honor. These men—Jack Newfong, John Lifu, George Fenoch, and Richard Martin—were brought to the Myora/Moongalba Mission, where they decided to put down roots. Today, their descendants still call North Stradbroke Island home. Frenchman’s Beach, with its eastern-facing shore, offers little shelter from the constant south-east waves. Stretching 500 meters, this beach is framed by towering, lush bluffs. Accessing the soft sands involves a bit of adventure: you can either navigate around Dune Rocks from nearby Deadmans Beach or take a steep, signed walking track from the main road above. The waves here average between 1 and 1.5 meters, creating an inner bar often interrupted by two rips, including a permanent one near Dune Rocks. North Stradbroke Island, known for its rugged beauty, is a haven for those seeking both relaxation and a touch of thrill. The island's diverse wildlife and serene landscapes make it a perfect spot for nature lovers. Whether you're keen on surfing the waves or simply enjoying a peaceful stroll along the beach, there's something here for everyone. Plus, the island's rich history adds an intriguing layer to your visit.
