North Curl Curl Beach

The beach spans 1.2 kilometers along Sydney's coastline, featuring separate North and South sections divided by a natural rock formation.

The name Curl Curl comes from Aboriginal language terms referring to the sound of waves crashing against the northern headland rocks.

North Curl Curl Beach functions as a central gathering spot for local surfing communities who practice their sport in 1.6-meter average waves.

Visitors should swim exclusively between red and yellow flags, as multiple strong rip currents occur regularly along different sections of the beach.

The northern section contains a coastal lagoon meeting the ocean, creating varied water conditions suitable for different swimming skill levels.
