Beautifully landscaped parklands and recreation facilities were created on this coastal foreshore area named Millennium Esplanade. Millennium Esplanade is on the main beach, where lifesavers patrol during Spring and Summer periods. With only a small variation in seasonal temperatures, the waters of Tannum Sands are perfect for year round swimming.
For over 50 years, the Esplanade beach areas of Tannum Sands have served as the principal destination for passive and active beachside pursuits for the entire Gladstone Region, and the thousands of people that visit the area throughout the year.
The area has excellent accommodation options, including caravan parks, motels, holiday units and cabins. For further information on accommodation and things to see and do, contact the Tannum Sands Information at Ocean Street.
