โšก Beverley's read

Woorim bribie Island's ocean beach ? the only suburb on the island that faces the open Pacific rather than the protected passage waters. The surf club, the patrolled beach, and the Woorim Beach foreshore make it the island's recreation destination, drawing visitors from across the region on summer weekends. The median house price is higher than the passage-side suburbs, reflecting the desirability of ocean-front living, and the surf is reliable enough that you won't miss the Sunshine Coast.
