Palm Cove: a tropical beach framed by iconic coconut palms and melaleuca-lined Esplanade, with a long wooden jetty and reef-protected lagoon. Shoot sunrise golden hour for soft light and reflections; low tide reveals tidal pools and rocky foregrounds. Easily accessible from Veivers Rd with street parking and cafes nearby; no entry fee. Weekday mornings are quiet; tropical wet season (Dec–Mar) brings dramatic skies but check weather.
