โก Beverley's read
Godwin Beach the quiet side of Bribie ? a narrow strip of sand and homes on the western side of the island, looking across Pumicestone Passage to the mainland. Sixteen kilometres from Caboolture and sixty from Brisbane, it's a fishing-and-relaxation kind of place, where the main activity is watching the tide come in across the marine park. The median house price is modest by coastal standards, reflecting the distance and the understated nature of the beach itself ? there's no flash, just sand, water, and quiet.
