History of Mermaid Beach
Before European settlement, the Gold Coast and hinterland was a natural area of timbered mountains and hills, river valleys, floodplain, salt and freshwater wetlands.
Low sand hills and long white beaches marked the place where the land finally met the waters of the Pacific Ocean. The land, rivers, the sea, the flora and fauna all formed the home of the Yugambeh people.
There were a number of family clans, the Kombumerri, the Wangeriburra, the Miginburri, the Gugingin, the Bullongin and perhaps others now unrecorded. Much has changed, but descendants of the Aboriginal people still live on the Gold Coast today.
In 1823 John Oxley (explorer & surveyor) landed on the Gold Coast at Mermaid Beach. This was named after his cutter Mermaid.
