A nice little beach in the heart of Coledale. BBQ area and tables are provided for those wishing to have a nice day out on the beach. Not so many parking spaces as the beach is also a camping reserve. Be early to ensure a parking space.

Can get a lil crowded on weekends it seems! But the waves are so good, waves every now and then! Enjoyed a lot!

We stayed here for one night with my partner and it was a really good experience. Just in front of the beach, peaceful and quiet. Totally worth it! And the best price you can find.
