A rural coastal suburb located within the Moreton Bay Region, Beachmere is positioned between Deception Bay and Sandstone Point. Well-known as a quiet hideaway perfect for families and those looking for beach and water fun or a bayside nature reprieve.

At Beachmere beach you’ll find a two-lane boat ramp and pontoon with plenty of parking, toilets and facilities. It’s not uncommon to see horse riders trotting along the Beachmere waterfront at low tide, as the beach is not far from the Queensland State Equestrian Centre.
