kelsta08 Posted July 21, 2018 Author Share Posted July 21, 2018 Hahahah yeh that’s true I’ve lived in the north of england once when I was a kid for a year but I’m from the south sounds good and are the rents reasonable on the north side compared to rest or are they all pretty much the same obviously living closer to the city would be dearer but wouldn’t want to be too far away x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"not far" could mean different things to different people as could "decent" and "city". What distance would you be prepared to travel for a beach and do you want a surf beach or a calm water beach? By city do you mean the CBD, or do you include outer suburbs which are still classified as being in the Brisbane City catchment? Your question is akin to "how long is a piece of string" and requires more detail from you to be answered correctly and it is just as quick and easy to look at a google map/satellite (probably quicker) than it is to answer the questions that I have posed 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can go to street view and have a virtual walk round. It's easy to work out how far places are apart, how long it will take you to drive etc. I like Brisbane but the man made beach thingy is OK but I prefer a real beach. Good for kids though. It's a drive to the nearest beach from Bris. If you could get a job close to the beach on the gold or sunshine coasts. By close I mean walking distance, it can make so much difference to your lifestyle. Good luck. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gbye grey sky Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 If long sandy pristine beaches on your doorstep is important then don’t come to Brisbane. There are some beautiful beaches out on islands like Stradbroke which is a very short ferry ride and then a bus or drive across the island from the Redlands where I live and Redcliffe just to the north of Brisbaneis fine too for many people. But otherwise look to drive about an hour south to Gold Coast or about an hour to the Sunshine Coast and risk motorway hold ups. Personally I love the coast and varied topography. Miles of sandy beaches are just boring. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
