I love the outdoors, away from the city, that's why I moved here 10 years ago.

Nothing beats it.

The air is clean and fresh and there's hardly any tourists on the northern beaches, making what it seems to be a quiet, full-time holiday destination for the locals!

Live in a big southern city, and try getting to the beach, it will take all day.

If you know where to go, you can also find your own private beach up along our coastline, that hardly anyone knows about.

Living alongside the Coral Sea is one of the trure local and regional delights.

However everyone needs to embrace and respect the natural beauty and protect it for the future.
