Geography
Beach Holm is one of Townsville's northern beach suburbs.

The locality is bounded to the north by the Coral Sea. The Bruce Highway enter the locality from the south-west (Mount Low / Derragun) and then forms the southern boundary of the locality (separating it from Jensen) and then exits to the south-west (the locality of Black River).

The watercourse Black River enters the locality form the south-west (locality of Black Water / Jensen) and forms the south-west boundary of the locality of Beach Holm. The boundary then extends west of the river before the boundary returns to the river and follows the river to its mouth (-19.1786°N, 146.6517°W) on the Coral Sea. The pocket of land on the west of the Black River is inaccessible directly from the locality east of the river.

The coastal strip is sandy and extends along the coast of most of the neighbouring locality of Bushland Beach. The sandy strip is also called Bushland Beach (-19.1884°N, 146.6731°W).

There is a small strip of housing along the beach on both sides of Batley Parade (also known as the Esplanade, -19.1808°N, 146.6555°W). Apart from that, the rest of the locality is low-lying (mostly near sea level) and swampy. Some of the land can be used for grazing on native vegetation but other uses are unused.
