Five Rocks Beach, also known as Three Rivers, is a remote and rugged 4.5-kilometer stretch of exposed sandy shoreline within the Byfield National Park system on the Capricorn Coast. This pristine beach is characterized by its expansive sands, occasional exposed rocks shaped by tidal influences, and panoramic views north and south along the coast. It is situated approximately forty kilometers north of Yeppoon and is bordered by significant headlands like Stockyard Point to the south. The area is part of the traditional lands of the Darumbal people and is managed for conservation, offering a wild, undeveloped fishing experience with no public amenities. Access requires careful planning due to its isolated location.
