Surfing at Alma Bay, Magnetic Island near Townsville, 1932

Vesna Verencevic said:
One of Queensland’s top 10 beaches – Alma Bay is located in Arcadia, on the Eastern coast of Magnetic Island. Alma Bay faces due east and has two prominent granite headlands which run out for 300 meters at either end of the beach. The Bay pays tribute and commemorates military staff who died during World War I, II, and the Vietnam War, with a touching war memorial. Ideal for swimming, snorkeling, or just relaxing. In 1886 a surveyor by the name of J. G O’Connell named ‘Alma Bay’ after the Pearce family children living in Townsville at the time. Alma Bay – located in Arcadia is a very picturesque little bay, just 150 m in width at the beach. The beach is often calm and only receives waves when the south easterlies are blowing. “It’s a safe beach, it’s well patrolled for swimmers and there are a limited number of stingers.” according to Arcadia Surf Life Saving Club president Paul -Demopoulos.
