Fairy Meadow Beach Reserve is a dog-friendly beach with a designated off-leash area where dogs can roam freely. Thomas Dalton Park is also around 300 metres away — a good spot to dry off after a swim. Some conditions apply, so it's worth checking before you visit.

Dog rules

Off-leash is permitted in the designated green-zone section of this beach only; dogs must stay on-leash elsewhere. Check the signs at the beach for the off-leash zone boundary.

Lovely family beach just up from the busy nth beach in Wollongong and not as crowded. Nice grass area with playground and tables. Perfect for lunch time.

It's a good walk. The only thing is that it can be super busy and people don't move or run you over on bikes.

It's a lot quieter than other beaches in Wollongong and always nice to visit.
