Nice beach with caves, beautiful scenery. Better to visit low tide. Can walk inside caves and relax. Beach is good for swim. Lifeguard also there. Parking washroom avaliable. Coffee shops and restaurants also available. Worth to visit, highly recommend. #visitaustraliaash #nature #beach #nsw #centralcoast #cavesbeach #ashfootprints

Really lovely spot! To get here, take the stairs down to the beach and head south. The main cave literally goes under the headland. Be mindful of tides.

It's a beautiful place accessible by foot. It can be a bit rugged as one needs steady footing over rocks. It has plenty of caves to rest away from the sun. Just be aware of the tides. Absolutely stunning place to visit..

It's a beautiful place but beware of a group of boys. While we were there they threw water balloons at our family and other visitors. They were aggressive until we left. Came to us and threw something again.Here are a few photos. It just happened yesterday 18th of July.
