  I am reluctant to write about Etty Bay as it is such a beautiful, peaceful yet unpopulated place and I don't want to spoil it by having hundreds of people go there. If you want a quiet bay with a small beach surrounded by lush rainforest, go to Etty Bay but don't tell anyone about it. It is just heaven. Great campsite perfect for Brits type vans or backpackers heading north or south. Worth the stop for the night. If you are lucky, you may see the resident cassowary.

  Etty Bay is a must visit, the beach is beautiful. Surrounded by National park this place is off the beaten track, but it is worth the effort to drive here and stay. the road leading to Etty bay is sealed and however No animals allowed. we stayed for a look and a cup of coffee from the general store. The outlook was great, but the coffee was burnt, yuk. The bay is well protected from winds and there are a lot of caravaners filling the park. The sand is golden and the beach is suitable for children. There is a Cassowary which frequents this place but not on the day of our visit.

  Great shady beach with lovely views. Wandering cassowaries here which we finally saw on our third visit.

  For those with a self-contained van and a love of nature , peace and quiet with an opportunity to enjoy a sea-side holiday, this is the perfect location. Many are scared away at Xmas by impending weather, think of it another way, the place is peaceful just listen for weather forecasts. Do not bring your mobile phone, it wioll not work

  Stunning beach, very relaxing and awesome weather, the tide was in and gentle waves lapped the shore. Only negative experience was the 60+ lady who worked in the store that sold takeaway food, very rude, needs to do an hospitality course, otherwise everything else was as you'd expect for an October day in Qld...perfect

  Visited Etty Bay yesterday, 25 November 2014, specifically to look for Cassowary. Arrived at 06:45hrs and managed to see a juvenile at the South end of the beach. Things quietened down so at 09:00hrs when the Kiosk/Café opened we all had Coffee & Muffins which were all excellent and really great value for money. The staff there were exceptionally friendly, providing us with up to date information on Cassowary sightings. We later left Etty Bay for a few hours returning late afternoon and managed to see a further 2 Cassowaries, an adult female and male. We decided to celebrate with Fish & Chips from the café which were also excellent. There's safe bathing with a 'Stinger' net, plenty of good toilet facilities. And by way of entertainment the local, tandem parachute franchise land at the North end of the beach. All in all a great place to spend a few hours, wildlife watching or just enjoying the beach. Highly Recommended.

  This is a lovely part of north Queensland, with the nice little café, kiosk, the most beautiful beach in the area, and so family friendly, most days you also get a visit from the local Cassowary family. we will be going back real soon 10/10

  Etty Bay is such a lovely little spot, to sit and have a swim at the beach, you can even catch a cassowary or too just wandering around, which is just fantastic

  This is our favourite beach of anywhere. It is shady (VERY unusual for a beach). It is spotless and has plenty of tables and seats and Barbeques with a lovely, clean cafe across the road. And wandering cassowaries! Great swimming - with a stinger net for summer months. When our adult children come home with their children, this is their favourite re-visit!!
