Parsley Bay Beach

It’s a nice park, lovely nature walk, swim off rocks, and with a place for (okay?!) coffee No parking! No dogs! No wheelchairs?

I was at Parsley Bay Beach today with my family & as I walked out, directly in front of the giant crab sculpture, till about where the bridge shadow is in the water, realised my stainless steel ring had slipped off my finger. It doesn't have much financial value, but a heap of sentimental value to me, as it's the first thing my wife gave me & has a special engraving on the inside, when we started our relationship a few years ago. I would be eternally grateful & could give some type of reward to anyone who finds it. Pls help 🥴🤷‍♂️ Other than that, it's a beautiful spot, with lots of shade & the water is so refreshingly cool.

Peaceful waters with beautiful rocks to chill on, lots of amenities nearby like cafes, showers, and a playground. There is also the iconic Parsley Bay bridge above the beach with stunning views.

I’ve been living in Sydney for over five years, and Parsley Bay has been on my must-visit list for just as long. I finally made it there—and it absolutely lived up to the hype. The beach is gorgeous: calm water, lush surroundings, and such a peaceful vibe. I was lucky enough to visit on a warm day when it wasn’t too busy, and it truly felt like the perfect little escape. The amenities were another pleasant surprise. The showers and bathrooms are honestly the cleanest I’ve ever seen at a beach in Sydney, which made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a beautiful, relaxing spot away from the crowds.

Great atmosphere, plenty of spaces good for picnic or swim! The water is calm and is nice to dip in for a chill swim. We had lunch from the famous Doyles on the Beach Restaurant.
