About this place
What to expect
Created to help stabilise the bar for the ocean fleet, the Iluka Break Wall is a favourite amongst locals and visitors alike. With views of nearby Yamba in the distance, don't forget to look down and see what you can discover amongst the waves and rocks. Legend has it the dolphins love following the trawlers to get an easy feed so keep your eyes peeled. Recent refurbishments have upgraded this facility repair the years of the relentless pounding of the waves. On a calm day, walk to the end of this impressive structure while keeping a mindful eye on the crashing waves from the left and onto Main beach. On the right side, there are the remains of an old fishing trawler and the shape of the wreck below can be spotted in the calmer weather. The wall is a great spot for fishermen to cast from in the protected waters. The creation of the "Wall" also resulted in producing an impressive wave for the talented local and visiting surfers.
