Why people love it
The feeling of this beach
Quiet, upscale west-coast beach with fine sand, glassy water and a peaceful local feel.
What to expect
The shoreline, end to end
Gibbes is a smaller, quieter alternative to its busy Platinum Coast neighbours — soft sand, calm clear water and a row of high-end private homes set back from the beach.
There are no public facilities to speak of, which is part of its appeal.
Reachable via a public access path between properties.
