Pallarenda, Queensland
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pallarenda is a suburb of Townsville, Queensland, Australia.
[edit] Description
The suburb is only three streets deep from the beach, and backs on to the Townsville Town Common. To the north of it is the Cape Pallarenda Conservation Park. There is some debate over where Pallarenda begins and ends, but most people agree that Pallarenda Creek marks the border between it and Rowes Bay, Queensland.
[edit] Facilities
The suburb had a corner store and a fish and chip shop until recently. The corner store closed down due to vandalism and the fish and chip shop has relocated. Bus services run three times daily. Pallarenda also has a boat ramp that provides direct access to the beach, and a permanent stinger enclosure, both in Pallarenda Park. To the south of Pallarenda there is a horse exercise beach and a dog off-leash area.
