Wangi Wangi Beach

Dogs welcome — rules apply•Dog rules

Wangi Wangi Beach is a dog-friendly beach where dogs are welcome on lead. You'll find BBQs nearby, and the calm, shallow water is great for dogs who enjoy a gentle paddle.

Dog rules

Dogs are only allowed to be off-leash in leash-free designated areas approved by Lake Macquarie City Council. Dogs must be on a leash and under effective control at all times in all other public places. Dogs are not permitted within 10 metres of playgrounds or BBQ areas, or within 400 metres of patrolled beaches. Dog owners must clean up after their dogs.

Always an amazing calm place to take kids for a swim with no waves to contend with. My children's fav place to travel to 40mins from where we are and we do it regularly in summer rather than a full blown beach

i mean, its not really a beach you would go to visit or even play or swim on. its more of a pile of sand next to water.
