Alexandria Bay
The longest natural beach in Noosa National Park, reachable only on foot, and often rated one of Queensland's most beautiful beaches.
Alexandria Bay lies south of Hell's Gates. It is a long, curved beach framed by eucalyptus forest and dunes, with no buildings. It can only be reached on foot, either along the national park track in about 1 hour or via the inland track from the Sunshine Beach side. The beach is wide and uncrowded, good for sunbathing and photography. However, there are no lifeguards on patrol and the rip currents are strong, so swimming is not recommended. The northern section of the beach is informally used by locals as a naturist beach, so families with children should take note.
