Sydney, Jan 31: A little-known Western Australian beach called Misery has taken out the title of Australia’s Best Beach.
Described as ‘picture perfect,’ Misery Beach, near Albany in WA, is one of 20 beaches judged to be the country’s best for 2022 by Australian coastal veteran and Tourism Australia appointed Friend of Australia and beach expert, Brad Farmer.

Farmer has been writing about beaches for almost 40 years and has visited most of Australia’s accessible beaches in his research travels.
This year’s list of winners focuses on nature-based locations, many quirky spots within easy reach of cities, and also celebrates the significant cultural value of the coast to Australia’s First Nations people.
The 2022 list has been announced today by the Federal Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment, the Hon Dan Tehan and Brad Farmer. 
“It’s summer again and after a long year of lockdowns, Australians everywhere are keen to finally get some sand between their toes and holiday at home this year on the world’s most diverse and magnificent selection of beaches,” Farmer said.
