What people say
Love this long beach great for doggies exercise. Nice and clean water and fine sand. We take a regular trip at least one a month from the Gold Coast.
Not very special. Just an open beach with very expensive parking. Won’t go again.
A great beach for exercising dogs in a very busy dog area and do a big walk for the humans as well.
Such fun for dogs of all sizes. Watch for blue bottles sometimes washed in. And walk walk walk. The right direction
Took my wife for a walk here... SHE LOVED IT! Didn't even need a leash! Lol
