Cute reclaimed beach tucked away behind some impressive residential estates. Small carpark so might need to park a bit further away and walk in through the path before the houses. Water gets deep fast, even during low tide so make sure the kids have floaties if they aren't confident swimmers. Final note, it's a dog off leash area and there was a local that let a pit bull off his leash and chased after my 9 year old, so use caution.

Beautiful spot for a swim. Nets set to avoid getting eaten by a shark. Be careful where you park your car. A parking ticket could cost you over $300.00 !!!

Nice and quiet beach! Away from the crowds and still beautiful! Not much around but still not a far spots from the shops and the center of the town.. it’s even a decent easy walk from everything and a little car park around the back. May be just a little too low but still great for a dip!

A really nice beach, we love setting up our bell tent picnics there - you get an amazing view of the azure coloured water, sail boats and the hills of Conway national park. Stinger nets are put up in the Summer months. The beach is never too crowded and there are toilets nearby.
