An in depth look at the demographic of an Australian cross border beach society unofficially named Watertown …..

Rainbows End beach is the last beach on the Queensland coast, bordering New South Wales, Australia. Follow the lives of the locals. The day-to-day happenings of the Rainbows End Surf Lifesaving club. The lifeys, the members, the boardriders, the locals, the out-of-towners, the penguins, the mad old blokes, the happy dysfunctional regulars with never ending optimism, the brick mentality of the ladies boat crew, the trawler crew, the cops, the romantic drunks, and the others.

What happens when a tragic loss affects all of their lives? Do they unite? Are they really all the same underneath?

How does a community based club with the motto No pokies. No bull. All are welcome - survive on chook raffles and bar sales?

Dirty pollies and dodgy developers circle a classic old beachfront building like sharks on a carcass. Backroom government deals with experts and problem solvers from foreign companies, who all have a proposed solution. Communities trying to stand against corruption and bankruptcy, whilst in the middle of it all, a secret love’s moment of truth has come. The struggle of honesty. Another day on the coast for the lifeys and locals.
