What people say
Towradgi Beach is a long, beautiful beach with easy parking right along the front. Very family-friendly, especially for toddlers, or people can't swim, Towradgi beach park with a playground and a calm lagoon where the river meets the ocean. There’s a rock pool, though it can have quite a bit of seaweed. I really enjoyed the natural stone-enclosed shallow area — sitting in the clear, icy-cool water and feeling it gently flow around you was very relaxing.
Aurora Australis not so visible tonight but it was so beautiful anyway. Terrific viewpoint for view towards Wollongong city and along the coast southwards. Parking is so close to the beach too. I should go more often.
Love this peaceful paradise Towradgi beach and park. Gorgeous beach. My favourite since I was a young girl. Top spot for swimming beach or pool, great for picnics, littlelies who want some fun in the park. Beautiful scenery, fresh air, it's absolutely perfect.
Absolutely beautiful. The park is very big and well maintained . Lots of toilets and easily accessible for people with wheelchair or walker. Great for young children and there’s a children park too . Highly recommended.
Really nice beach with lots of seats and space for picnics. There is a pretty big playground with lots of play equipment for ages up to 14. The beach has a rock pool as well as a normal pool but both pools have seawater. Beach is approximately 4.5 km long. Good beach for surfing and bodyboarding, for swimming you have to be experienced because the waves are pretty large and usually lots of rips.
