Annual Report 2018-2019 RAINBOW BAY SLSC ANNUAL REPORT 2018-2019 Beach Rainbow Bay and adjoining Snapper Rocks Beach are the southernmost beaches in Queensland. Rainbow Bay (1600) is a relatively small, 300 m long, north facing beach that is bordered in the west by Greenmount Hill. It ends at a low, rocky point, beyond which Snapper Rocks beach (1601) continues for another 100 m to Snapper Rocks; part of the larger 30 m high Point Danger that forms the border with New South Wales. The Rainbow Bay Surf Life Saving Club is the newest on the Gold Coast, being formed in 1963. It is located on the low, rocky point that separates the two beaches. A road runs along the back of both beaches, ending in a parking area behind Snapper Rocks Beach. There is a grassy foreshore reserve behind Rainbow Bay Beach. Both beaches receive waves that are lowered after moving around Point Danger to an average of about 1 m. The width of both beaches and offshore bar conditions depend on both the prevailing waves and the status of sand waves moving around Point Danger. When the bars are present, the beaches are connected by sand, there is a wide surf zone and excellent surfing conditions. When the bars are absent, the beaches are separated by the rocky point, are narrower and there is an attached bar cut by one rip at Snapper Rocks Beach and two at Rainbow Bay. Low rocks dominate the Snapper Rocks surf zone and are a hazard for swimmers. Swimming Rainbow Bay is a popular swimming beach, owing to its protected location and usually low waves. However, watch for the changing bar conditions and presence of rips, particularly near the rocks and Greenmount Hill. The safest swimming is in the patrolled area on Rainbow Bay Beach. Swimming is not recommended at Snapper Rocks Beach because of the rocks. Surfing When the bars are right, the two beaches can combine to produce a classic, long, easy right- hander, that at times has been known to reach adjoining Coolangatta Beach. There are usually reasonable waves that are popular with the surfers during southerlies, when the winds blow offshore. Fishing This is a popular fishing area, as the name of Snapper Rocks suggests. There is good beach fishing into the usual rip holes and outer troughs, together with rock fishing off Greenmount and Snapper Rocks. General Queensland's southernmost beaches are both picturesque, even if somewhat developed. They provide continually changing bar conditions and a nice place to watch the sun set over the Gold Coast high rises. 1 RAINBOW BAY SLSC ANNUAL REPORT 2018-2019 Table of Contents Surf Life Saving

  • Duranbah Beach – Community Involvement in Managing a Complex Environment, an Adaptive Approach
    DURANBAH BEACH – COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT IN MANAGING A COMPLEX ENVIRONMENT, AN ADAPTIVE APPROACH 1 2 1 S Lawson , J Lofthouse , I Taylor 1Land and Property Management Authority, NSW 2Tweed Shire Council, NSW Introduction Duranbah Beach is the most northerly beach along the New South Wales (NSW) coastline, located adjoining the NSW and Queensland (QLD) border. The regional coastline is highly valued for its natural, built and recreational assets. Duranbah Beach has national and international recognition as a highly valued surfing site. Beach and surfing conditions have been subject to the influence of coastal works for more than half a century, as well as being fully exposed to high-energy ocean wave conditions. In particular, over the last decade, the previous coastal sand supply to Duranbah has been impacted by the operation of the Tweed River Entrance Sand Bypassing Project (TRESBP). This scheme is a joint project of the NSW and Queensland Governments that artificially bypasses the coastal sand drift around the entrance to the Tweed River. This has improved navigation at the river mouth and maintained a continuous coastal sand supply to QLD beaches north of the river entrance. Sand is also delivered by the scheme to Duranbah Beach for nourishment of the beach and/or nearshore shoals. This paper describes the changing coastal landscape, sand delivery operational issues, the state and local government partnership in the nourishment works, and community stakeholder shared involvement in Duranbah Beach coastal management. Duranbah Beach Duranbah Beach is located in Tweed Shire in NSW, and sited between the mouth of the Tweed River and the NSW/QLD State border (Fig.

  • Using Historical Responses to Shoreline Change on Australia's
    Journal of Marine Science and Engineering Article Using Historical Responses to Shoreline Change on Australia’s Gold Coast to Estimate Costs of Coastal Adaptation to Sea Level Rise Daniel Ware 1,* , Andrew Buckwell 2 , Rodger Tomlinson 1 , Kerrie Foxwell-Norton 3 and Neil Lazarow 4 1 Griffith Centre for Coastal Management, Griffith University, Gold Coast Campus, Gold Coast, QLD 4222, Australia; r.tomlinson@griffith.edu.au 2 Griffith Business School, Griffith University, Nathan Campus, Nathan, QLD 4222, Australia; a.buckwell@griffith.edu.au 3 Griffith Centre for Social and Cultural Research, Griffith University, Gold Coast Campus, Gold Coast, QLD 4222, Australia; k.foxwell@griffith.edu.au 4 CSIRO, Land and Water, Canberra, ACT 2601, Australia; [email protected] * Correspondence: d.ware@griffith.edu.au; Tel.: +61-755528389 Received: 26 March 2020; Accepted: 13 May 2020; Published: 26 May 2020 Abstract: Climate change impacts, sea level rise, and changes to the frequency and intensity of storms, in particular, are projected to increase the coastal land and assets exposed to coastal erosion. The selection of appropriate adaptation strategies requires an understanding of the costs and how such costs will vary by the magnitude and timing of climate change impacts. By drawing comparisons between past events and climate change projections, it is possible to use experience of the way societies have responded to changes to coastal erosion to inform the costs and selection of adaptation strategies at the coastal settlement scale. The experience of implementing a coastal protection strategy for the Gold Coast’s southern beaches between 1964 and 1999 is compiled into a database of the timing, units, and cost of coastal protection works.

  • Coolangatta Heritage Walk
    Coolangatta Heritage Walk Discover the history and heritage of Coolangatta on the self-guided Coolangatta Heritage Walk. The walk is a celebration of the rich history of the town and recognises those places of special heritage significance to the Gold Coast that have been listed on the Gold Coast Local Heritage Register. Dating back to 1883, Coolangatta is one of the earliest settlements on the Gold Coast. It was named after the brigantine, Coolangatta, which was wrecked off the beach at Kirra in 1846. By the early 1900s it was officially the place to holiday with camping grounds to accommodate holiday makers and newly formed surf life saving clubs to ensure their safety on the beaches. “When surf bathing becomes as popular in Queensland as it is at Manly…it is probably that Coolangatta will receive the purple ribbon of superiority over its rivals in attractiveness…for the locality is favoured by many people as a delightful holiday resort” Marine Parade Coolangatta as seen from Kirra Hill, 1920s. The Queenslander, April 1912. Image courtesy of City of Gold Coast Local Studies Library. As the popularity of Coolangatta grew, legendary guest houses like Greenmount, The Beach House and Stella Maris were established along Marine Parade. Later, as the beach culture continued to thrive at Coolangatta, motels began to replace guesthouses and tourist attractions developed to meet the changing needs of the holiday maker. Today, Coolangatta is the quintessential holiday resort. Coolangatta beach and Marine Parade, 1935. Marine Parade, Coolangatta 1958. Image courtesy of City of Gold Coast Local Studies Library.
