Our local beach, access across the road. Coastal Walking Track, terrific playground and BBQ area overlooking beach and creek. Walk up to the headland is worth it for the views, especially when the whales are migrating June - October. Off-leash dog area on headland. No dogs are allowed on Kendalls beach sadly. Bombo and Werri are dog friendly.
