Glad that people are interested; anyone who wants to expand their thoughts, please do! We're clearly all on the same page, and other people who've been here can provide more local knowledge. :D
Here's some stuff from one of the local rpg groups:
--- Quote ---I remember reading somewhere it was American GIs coming down to the Coast for R&R who first called the beaches Palm Beach, Miami Beach, and Mermaid Beach. The nicknames stuck. Who or what came over with the American soldiers? What did they leave behind?
Could be a possible adventure seed.
When I was a kid there was an urban legend about the a monster which roamed Burleigh Headland at night called the Beast of Burleigh. There's no mention of it in this article about Gold Coast urban legends.
--- End quote ---
If the marines were this far south, the battle of Brisbane may have spread here as well, which has much story/embarrassment potential.
