What to expect
Killick Beach is 14 kilometres long at Crescent Head is a picturesque white sand beach that is home to the Crescent Head Malibu Classic. Famous for a long, slow right-hand wave that peels off the point, working in almost any sized swell it is best suited to longboards. The tidal Killick Creek opens into the Pacific Ocean and provides sheltered swimming for children. In front of the surf club is a beach break that is home to left and right-hand waves depending on the direction and size. This is Crescent Head’s most popular family beach as it provides easy access to the centre of town, plenty of parking, barbecue facilities and a playground for the children. Four-wheel drive access is available for beach permit holders from Richardsons Crossing to the Hungry Camp Area. Surf Lifesaving Patrol is available on weekends (October to April) and during the holiday season.
