Within its 1.5km strip are award winning spas and restaurants which attract both domestic and international holiday makers. The beach is simply beautiful and worthy of all the accolades it has received "Queensland's Cleanest Beach", "Far North Queensland's Friendliest Beach", and even "Australia's Cleanest Beach". Offshore islands of Haycock and Double Island and the Palm Cove jetty at the northern end make Palm Cove even more picturesque.

Swimming at Palm Cove is safe year round. Lifeguards are present and during the warmer summer months of the wet season when the stingers (dangerous box jellyfish) are present, a large safe netted swimming enclosure is in place.

The local population of Palm Cove has a deep sense of community and is justifiably proud of its beautiful beach home. Each year in October, the celebration of Palm Cove Fiesta encapsulates the flavours and lifestyle of the beachside community.
