The moment which was shared on social media by the Queensland Ambulance Service shows a paramedic standing beside the woman in her hospital bed.
The pair are seen looking out at the water at Hervey Bay, a coastal city in southern Queensland.
Hervey Bay officer-in-charge Helen Donaldson said a crew was transporting a patient to the palliative care unit of the local hospital when the woman expressed how she wished she could "just be at the beach" instead.
