Not patrolled but nice clear and calm waters. Has a shaded part so can do a picnic.

Nice little beach not patrolled. Plenty of parking and good toilet facilities. No food or drink shops at site.

My favourite beach in Nambucca! I remember being here 25 odd years ago and it still has the charm I left it in from back then. Perfect for a dip, walk, excursion with the kids, BBQ picnic or anything you'd expect from a good beach in a quiet town. Best times early morning or late evening to beat the strong sun. Watch out for the rocks and bluebottles!

A small piece of paradise for beach lovers — an amazing place to simply sit and watch the spectacular waves.

Nice quiet beach. Not many people here, I found carpark during Christmas holiday.
