About

Ellis Beach is a locality in Tropical North Queensland, Australia. It lies on the Coral Sea. At the 2006 census, Ellis Beach had a population of 30. The five-kilometre strip of Ellis Beach is located 20 km north of Cairns on the Captain Cook Highway between Cairns and Port Douglas, within the Cairns Region local government area.
Ellis Beach is also home to the Ellis Beach Surf Lifesaving Club which regularly hosts competitions and events. From November to May, a stinger net patrolled by the club helps protect swimmers from marine "stingers" (jellyfish species of Chironex and Irukandji) which inhabit the waters during those months.
Ellis Beach featured in the fourth season of the Amazing Race.
