Australia is known for its beaches, the white sandy stretches and glistening clear water are one of the things that make this such a great country to live in. While most Australian's love their beaches, they also love a bit of healthy rivalry. So shout your cause from the rooftops and let us know where in Australia we can find the best beach.
It could be a great spot because you can eat the best fish and chips on the sand, or it might be the place where you can catch the raddest waves. We know we've got so many great ones out there, we just need you to tell us which one rules.
Bondi Beach: Wikipedia
One of our most well known beaches is
Bondi Beach, a popular tourist spot for anyone visiting Sydney. We're pretty sure the locals love it too. All year round people flock to this beach, and it has even become the location for some Australian television shows like Bondi Rescue and Bondi Vet. It is clear that Bondi has a pretty important role in the Australian psyche, but is it the best we have to offer?
Surfer's Paradise: Wikipedia
The Gold Coast is also a popular spot for both locals and tourists. Here you'll find another famous Australian beach,
Surfers Paradise. This is the place to be for school leavers, who celebrate their Schoolies festivities around this sandy beach. Here you'll find sun, surf, and sand, three of the things that the Gold Coast does best. The question is whether this is where Australia does it best?
Glenelg Beach
There are other popular spots throughout the country. I grew up in the Coastal South Australian Suburb of Moana, so for me that is where I'll always find my favourite beach. That doesn't mean that I don't love visiting Manly in Sydney, or even trying out the
Darwin Wave Lagoon, one of the few places you can swim up North without worrying about crocodiles. I know that Western Australia has got some fabulous bits of coastline, and I can only dream about spending my time lounging on a sandy bit of paradise in the Whitsundays.

The facts are there, we've got some mighty fine beaches, and you can love all of them. We just want to know which one you love the most. It doesn't have to be the most popular spot, in fact it may be a tranquil hideaway that you've discovered. Maybe the beach is made great by the Australian lifesavers that patrol its shores, or maybe it just holds some special memories for you. Put those fighting gloves on Australia, and battle it out, because we want to know where we can find Australia's best beach.
