Trinity Beach Holiday – Cairns Northern Beaches
Trinity Beach, a beautiful tropical holiday
destination and a great place to live. Ask any
local.
The following are resource links for further local
information on Trinity Beach through various
community web sites.
ANZAC Day
Trinity Beach offers an ANZAC Day ceremony at the
memorial on the southern end of Vasey Esplanade on
the 25th April of each year. Trinity Beach played an
important role during WW2 as a training ground for
amphibious landings prior to pushing the Japanese
forces out. Thousands of troops landed here at one
time when the beach looked very different from
today.
A large part of the suburb has Papua New Guinea
street names in memory of the Coastwatchers and of
course the shopping centre of the same name.
Coastwatchers played a major role in the Battle of
the Coral Sea, contributing to the early detection
to cut communications between the Australian and
American forces by the Japanese. (Taken from Cairns
Post, Article Inaugural Beaches ANZAC Parade by
Michael Angel-Dzubiel)
So come and join us at sunrise on the 25th April.
With Trinity Beach lapping in the background you
will experience some of the magic and reflect on
our Trinity Beach Coastwatchers.
