The beach is absolutely breathtaking and peaceful. It appears that dogs are welcome, and there is also a designated spot for picnics.

The beach is great for dog owners as there is a designated off-leash section. We enjoyed the shaded area in the off-leash section, but it's unfortunate that some dog owners neglect to clean up after their pets, which negatively impacts the overall experience. It would be appreciated if all dog owners could please clean up after their dogs.

This beach in NSW is one of the best dog-friendly beaches I have visited. The swimming conditions were great during our visit, with calm waters.

The beach is absolutely lovely, with ample parking, restroom facilities, and seating areas. I had a great time observing the dogs joyfully playing around, creating a beautiful and serene atmosphere. Although there were a few blue bottles, the water itself was absolutely divine.

The beach was amazing. It was really spacious, so there was plenty of room for everyone. Surprisingly, it was peaceful both times we visited, even though it was the busiest time of the year. It's conveniently located just 15 minutes away from the highway. There's a large area where dogs can roam freely without a leash. The waves were gentle, and there was shade all along the back of the left side of the beach. They also had restroom facilities, a few picnic tables, and trash bins available.
