Coconut Bay is an exposed, headland-bound beach located in Guthalungra, Queensland, Australia. It stretches approximately 200 meters and faces southeast, offering scenic views and a link to the nearby Abbot Bay Beach through its surf zone. The beach is backed by a low foredune covered in spinifex and casuarina trees, with a small creek draining at the northern headland. Situated within the rugged landscape of Cape Upstart National Park, Coconut Bay provides a unique setting for beachgoers.
The area around Coconut Bay features a mix of rocky coastline and sandy beaches, with the park being an important site for the Juru people and part of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park. Access to the beach can be challenging via a torturous 4WD track or more readily by boat. The park's rugged terrain also offers opportunities for hiking and exploring the surrounding natural beauty.
Visitors to Coconut Bay should be aware of potential hazards such as riptides and marine wildlife, especially during the summer months when marine stingers are present. The beach itself offers a peaceful retreat for those seeking a secluded coastal experience.
