Very peaceful and plenty of parking. People seem to be fascinated by Dee Why, which gets overcrowded. In comparison, Narrabeen is less crowded with almost similar eateries and more relaxing views.

Narabeen beach is amazing, the weather is usually really nice for fun activities and the view is absolutely stunning! There are also alot of lifeguards to ensure all individuals safety and flags to alert swimmers of safe zones. Would definitely recommend if you're in the area!

I love my beach (I live in the street running parallel to the beach), never too busy, a 4km stretch of natural beauty. Great surf clubs and spots for coffee, breakfast etc. stunning sunrises & a sea pool at each end of the beach ☺️

Lovely first swim of the year here- the beach was empty but the Rockpool had a few people in. Pretty strong undertow, not recommended for unconfident swimmers. The only way to the beach from the changing rooms is back to the road and across the bridge, though there’s an outdoor shower in the car park if that’s all you need.
