Now completed we have visited every mile beach as part of our around Australia travel. At each nominated beach one of us travelled the length of the beach by either vehicle, kayak, jet ski, bike or by foot. While travelling the length of each beach I photographed or filmed the expedition to the best of my ability and the following are the reports.

Criteria for selection of mile beaches
Using Geoscience Australia Discovery and Delivery System – Place Names Search. it was discovered there are 48 beaches around Australia with such names. There are many other beaches I have learned along the way that have localized names. There is a beach near Stanley, TAS official name is Anthony Beach but is commonly referred to by the locals as Seven Mile Beach. In the interest of keeping some relevance to the basis of this project it was excluded as I have come across so many more. However there is beach in the central western Victoria, on Lake Hindmarsh which is called Four Mile Beach and this was included. Well you figure that one out….
