Latest reviews on Nambucca Valley's beaches

Main Beach
10 Kellan Thorne

This beach is stunning and can get quite crowded during peak times due to its large camping area, Bowls Club, and Surf Club. The long stretch of beach offers relatively safe swimming when the tide is coming in, with shallow wading water near the Surf Club side. The view of the mountains from the water is breathtaking, and there is also a great hillside view from the top of the beach.

Beilby's Beach
6 Malia Rivers

This beach is a nice little spot located next to Main Beach. It's a quiet place to stop by on a Sunday, with a decent amount of parking available. Please note that dogs are not allowed on this section of the beach and swimming is not recommended. However, I did observe people surfing here.
