The Esplanade

The Esplanade is peaceful during the day with visitors catching the early morning rays and watching the unique birdlife feeding along the mudflats.  Palm trees line the length of the Esplanade highlighting the Tropical feel of this warm city.  

You will regularly see tourists getting a nice tan along the Esplanade and locals enjoying an Australia Barbeque (Barbie - check out our dictionary of Australian Slang) with family and friends whilst children play at the many playground areas within the area.

Bird Watchers will be amazed at the diverse range of sea birds that inhabit the mudflats - make sure you bring you binoculars with you. There are posters of the types of birds and their names located at one the white shelters.
