Dog rules

Central Coast Council's "Guide to being PAWSOME!" booklet states: "Dogs and cats are prohibited to enter schools, shopping centres, beaches (except in designated areas), food preparation areas, playgrounds and wildlife protection areas, as outlined by the Companion Animals Act 1998." This beach is not on Central Coast Council's published list of designated off-leash dog areas, so dogs are prohibited under the council's general rule.

allows dogs has a work out area and close by tons of parking and life guards or life savers watch tower waves can be high and extreme wouldn't recommend going into water when they are like that without someone on duty

I've found the beach while just walking around the area. The beach is really clean with just a few pieces of trash laying around. At the beginning of the beach there is a nice lovely caffee and if you want to be adventurous you can climb the rocks on the side of the beach and just walk further just pay attention to not slip of because some of them are really slippery. I've even found a peale's falcon nest with baby birds in it. Along the beach and at the end of it there are plenty of parking spots and there even starts a really nice walking walk called "Bouddi coastal walk" definitely a must to go.

A lovely beach and really quite long and spacious! Perfect for walking along or relaxing and going for a swim. Super cool to watch the surfers too, and it is next to Bouddi national park where the coastal walk is reasonably easy and you can do part of it starting/ending at Beautiful Bouddi Beach

An accidental find whilst exploring the area. So glad we found it however. I could have spent all day here exploring the rocky area. Plenty of crabs and little fish taking shelter in the rocks. This place was heaven. From the beach section that is patrolled by the local life guards to the rock pools and rocks to climb up at low tide. This place is going straight to my favorites list. This is one place where you need to really watch where you walk however. Some rocks will be slippery whilst others host a myriad of sea creatures. I would like to cime back here some day and get to know the area better.
