Exploring Townsville...

We've had a few days to explore Townsville. Townsville is quite busy, it's a large town with so many shops, not what we like really, however, we always make the most of it and so we enjoyed some walks along the beach, and picnics on the beach, exploring the army fort, and splashing in the rock pool!
Townsville has a large rock pool right beside the beach which is very popular, and the beach water here is the warmest we've ever felt, don't know why!

Townsville Beach...the beach has stinger nets to keep stingers out of course...

The Strand is a very long street along the beach which has some cafes and restaurants along it, a delicious ice creamery, playgrounds, a water zone (under renovations at the moment), bike, walk path and at one end of it is the rock pool...Great place for a good walk, picnic, splash and play!

In the background is Magnetic Island...

We walked up to Kissing Point Fort (an old army fort)...
