What people say
POV: You bring chips and suddenly 12 seagulls want to be your best friend. Corrigans Beach is like that reliable friend who’s always chill but never shows off. Family-friendly, soft sand, good BBQ spots — basically the beach version of a Sunday arvo nap. Just beware of the flying snack thieves. They don’t play.
Nice long sandy beach with small waves and few people. Good for relaxing, fishing or taking the kids to play. However, as an unpatrolled beach you need to have due regard for the conditions and your swimming ability. It is also subject to influxes of seaweed.
Beachside vibes are amazing, even spotted a few flying stars tonight, calm and quiet
