New Brighton Beach
History
The area around what is today New Brighton was called North Beach, and was a popular spot for surfing and a site for picnics. On 6 May 1849, a cyclone carried Swift in a strong southeasterly wind as the schooner cast ashore on a beach north of present-day New Brighton. The town has since then appeared in a postcard and is a popular holiday destination.
