What a great little beach. Located slightly away from main Cronulla stretch, this is great for families / small children. The water is quite shallow, and good to run and splash around in. Plenty of sand, grass and picnic areas. Note - it is not patrolled.

Impressive small beach, perfect also in winter to enjoy a break away from the city. Calm and very secluded, just follow google map direction to arrive here… simple path, get ready to got up/down the hill 😜
