'Paradise Beach'

Abstract

According to one newspaper report, Paradise Beach was initially marketed in the US as a ‘very hip, very cool’ Australian serial about three good-looking suburban kids finding romance and adventure in an endless summer. Here, in Australia, Channel 9 did something rather similar: PARADISE BEACH is where the perfect white sand stretches for miles; where the music is hot and the party just goes on and on. It's where teenagers from everywhere converge to cut loose, find the perfect wave, and fall hopelessly in love. And that's exactly what happens with our four young and passionate central characters and their friends.
