About this place

What to expect

This tucked-away Vaucluse harbour beach is well-loved for its gentle, family-friendly waves and green space. An enclosed swimming area, children’s playground, shady trees, kiosk and picnic facilities make it a quiet but popular local spot come summer. A footbridge, leading bushwalkers on a short, 20-minute return circuit, straddles the bay overhead as swimmers splash below. The beach can be accessed by a small carpark located on Horler Avenue (open until 8pm during daylight savings), but most beachgoers make their way via pedestrian access from The Crescent, Hopetoun Avenue and Horler Avenue.
