What people say
I had a quick swim 🏊♂️ and patted a few dogs, Beach Beach is part of the Vaucluse estate
It's a nice place when it's not crowded (it usually isn't). But it is a bit small for most activities, such as dogs-off-lead, sport, parties. However, it is a wonderful place to set-off on a kayaking/rowing trip. The tide comes in and out a long way owing to a very shallow gradient. Stingrays can commonly be seen here if you wade 20m or so out.
Lovely bay to take a dip and relax. Very calm and nice outlook. No facilities. Bring your own chairs or picnic rugs
Safe to swim here,lovely cove.
My mum and I were driving around for ages trying to find a quiet spot by the water and enjoy a picnic under some shadey trees. We were so happy we found this spot!! Hardly anyone around.
