The Esplanade in Hervey Bay (also known as Charlton Esplanade) runs for around 17km along the beach front from beyond the Urangan Boat Harbour in the south-east to Gatakers Bay in the north-west and along the way it runs through the ‘suburbs’ of Urangan, Torquay, Scarness, Pialba and Point Vernon.
If you’re a visitor then you’ll spend a lot of time on the Esplanade in Hervey Bay because most of the resorts, caravan parks, motels, cafes and restaurants are found along the town-side of the road. The Esplanade also passes through shopping centers and residential areas too.
