Parked in the centre and funnily enough crossed a camping to walk along the water to see all the lovely painted boulders. Surfers were out. A must see if you are in port macquaire.

One of the best beaches I've ever been too. It has everything from surf to walking tracks to the breakwall to picnic areas. Even at night Town Beach is amazing. It's right in the heart of Port. Take walks from Town Beach to either Town Green or Flynns Beach you won't be disappointed.
