Nelly Bay

📖 About Nelly Bay

Nelly Bay is the main beach on Magnetic Island, a short ferry ride from Townsville in tropical North Queensland. The gently curving sandy shore fronts calm, clear waters with fringing coral reef, making it ideal for snorkelling and family swimming. With the ferry terminal, shops, and cafes just steps away, it is the island's social hub and a natural first stop for visitors.
