Is it Nudie Beach, Fitzroy Is?

Yes it is.  I was actually a bit disappointed with this beach - it looks nicer from a distance than when you actually get there, but it was a nice walk.

OK I have to go out shortly so hopefully this will be in easy one.  A big clue - it was taken very recently so obviously this rules out many places!

What is the name of the beach and where is it?

If you are correct, there is nothing wrong with your memory. 😉

the picture looked very familiar and looked Greek so I googled and found the name and where it was then  I remembered being on a bus tour and going past and stopping for the obligatory photo.  

Corfu.  Vlacherana Monastery.  I think I remember driving past this when I was in Corful back in about 1980

is it somewhere in Greece?

is it the pub in Port Vila?  Can't remember the name but it is on the main street overlooking the water

this was the main house

His studio, up the hill from the house.

 

Yes, and the house was known as The Cedars.  An interesting place to visit and beautiful grounds.

Only Hahndorf people I can think of are Hans Heysen, white square house, and Wolf Blass. Big complex on main road.
