Is it possible to swim year round at Palm Cove?
We swim year round on the Great Barrier Reef. On mainland beaches such as Palm Cove, there are swimming enclosures which are deployed between the months of October and May each year. This is to provide protection from marine stingers, such as the box jellyfish, which migrate along tropical beach shorelines during our southern hemisphere summer. The swimming enclosure at Palm Cove is located almost directly opposite Alassio.
