Have just returned home after visiting a really ideal spot in Australia. Here I could swim five metres off a virtually deserted beach and dive among thousands of brightly coloured tropical fish on a coral reef.
Every second vehicle was a 4wd. I could buy a slab of beer for $30.00, petrol was 91c a litre. Locals still leave their houses open and their cars too. There are numerous other great things going for this spot I might tell you more later.
But then you may already know.

Can't be here because beer is $44 - diesel is $1.03 and we don't have tropical fish, only yabbies. Got the virtually deserted beach though.

off to whoop whoop (as evidenced by deserted beach) with 91c petrol, could only happen in qld.

tropical fish and coral 5 metres offshore? has to be somewhere warmer, probably north of mackay.

coral and tropical fish wouldnt play in the breakers, so 5 metres offshore would have to be still water - back end of an island or peninsular.

every second vehicle a 4by? must have 2wd access.

also probably not a river mouth, as that would discourage coral growth.

my guess would be either repulse bay below proserpine (too well known?) or Upstart Bay near Ayr.

could also be a major city anywhere in australia with something like sea world where you can swim in a man made environment.....

Wrong ocean . This may give it away. You can buy a large bottle of Bundy for $15.00 and I won't tell you what a packet of fags cost.
