B. It's a really cool place because it's right on the coast near the beach.

The wording in this is too casual, so the writing itself is not formal. As well, it provides no useful facts and there is no evidence to support the statement. Therefore it is unfit for a formal report.

Brisbane is a cool place located on the coast near Australia where most Americans fly into.
