Hugo F. • August 12, 2014Great surfing spot for beginners, although I would recommend Manly Beach and its regular waves. Gets crowded in summer but is definitely a place to be 30mn from the City. Bondi to Coogee is a must do
Balázs G. • January 4, 2017Really nice beach, altogether well worth coming to Manly. Limited bathing options though.
Bob M. • January 26, 2021Excellent local beach. Less touristy than Bondi Beach. Very nice to come in the evening and cool down on a hot summer night.
Alex T. • February 13, 2014Fantastic small beach, for surfers, but also good cafes round here. Nicknamed 'Glamourama'.
Anita • October 28, 2014Beautiful sand, enough surf not to be overpowering, easier to find parking than some other beaches
jess w. • January 5, 2013Love this beach. Kid friendly, relaxed vibe, calmer water. Watch out for the sandstorms! Great any time of day or night.
Imogen D. • October 30, 2012Lovely protected beach. Great surfing spot in most conditions. Not long so be prepared to battle for space on the sand and in the waves.
Simon C. • August 17, 2011Fantastic snorkelling off Shelly Beach. Loads of big Blue Gropers, Wobbygongs and many other fish. Great beach for kids.
James F. • December 6, 2020Great beach with calm water and a nice little shack selling food and drinks. Slightly hidden yet easily found by those who know.
Daniel S. • January 28, 2017One the most beautiful beach in Sydney. Great for enjoy with family or friends. Is not so crowded and the water is clean. Don't forget to climb until lighthouse to enjoy the view about Palm Beach.
Michael • December 3, 2023Love this beach. My regular. Nice, predictable and mostly safe corner. And not so invaded by the ferry-catching hordes
Mary C. • February 8, 2018Clean beach with beautiful sand and water. Not crowded but a bit far from shops so bring supplies
Jordan P. • January 24, 2018Nice little beach, no waves, nice and calm. Many rocks to climb if u feeling adventurous
Cliverson O. • January 21, 2018Amazing private beach, clear water and you can see a few fishes close to the rocks. Don’t forget your snorkel!
Diana D. • December 9, 2015Great dog beach with an amazing view! Closest dog beach to the eastern suburbs because Randwick City Council doesn't have any dog beaches (shame on them)
Linda H. • October 3, 2016Nice local's beach with some tree shades on the grass hill overlooking the beach; good takeout options and cafes near by.
Mary C. • February 17, 2018Relaxing beach with beautiful views. The rock pool is great. Lovely cafe's nearby.
Mauricio P. • January 5, 2010Great beach for families complete with shade, shark nets and cafe. Expect to wait 0.5 to 1 hr for take away food though
Raluca Bastucescu • November 27, 2015I love this beach! Perfect if you don't like big waves and just want to relax in water
Beachwiki • August 31, 2011Some great restaurants along foreshore, as well as Jonahs atop the hill overlooking the beach.
Steve N. • July 30, 2011A little hidden gem. It's the next beach after little Manly. Accessed via footpath. Great for kids. Take a picnic and chill out for a few hours.
Chris K. • December 5, 2018I prefer this beach over Manly as it is less crowded and mostly of locals.
Jane P. • September 15, 2012Dog lovers paradise! Great harbour beach for your pooch to swim & romp around. Lovely grass park area for picnics.
