Teewah Beach

Teewah Beach, Beach within Great Sandy National Park in Queensland, Australia

Teewah Beach is a 51-kilometre sandy beach stretching from Double Island Point in Cooloola, Gympie Region, through Noosa North Shore in the Shire of Noosa, to the Noosa River in Queensland, Australia. It lies within Great Sandy National Park. Along its Noosa North Shore section, sand cliffs known as the Teewah Coloured Sands rise up to 200 metres, their colours formed by iron oxide and vegetable dyes.

Teewah Beach lies within Great Sandy National Park, which protects the Cooloola section of the Queensland coast. The beach gained wider attention on 8 July 1973, when the Singapore-registered cargo ship Cherry Venture ran aground on it. Its rusting hull remained on the sand for decades and was removed in 2007 because it was too dangerous for the tourists who climbed through it.

Teewah Beach is a designated road under Queensland government legislation for much of its length, and four-wheel-drive traffic shares the sand with campers and anglers. Camping on the beach requires a fee, while the Noosa North Shore section is closed to vehicles. The heavy holiday use has made vehicle safety and damage to the beach ecosystem a long-running dispute between drivers and environmentalists.

Much of Teewah Beach is a designated road under Queensland legislation, so a four-wheel drive is needed for the soft sand; the Noosa North Shore section is closed to vehicles. Camping fees apply and permits must be arranged before arrival. Fast-moving vehicles are a known hazard during holiday periods, so keep clear of traffic when on foot.

The Singapore-registered cargo ship Cherry Venture ran aground on 8 July 1973. Its rusting hulk was removed in 2007 because it was too dangerous for tourists who climbed through it despite warnings. The stainless steel propeller now rests at Rainbow Beach as a monument.
