Whale Beach, Coastal beach in Northern Beaches region, Australia
The 600-meter-long eastern beach features high headlands on both ends and contains a 25-meter rock pool at its southern section.
The beach settlement experienced substantial growth during the 1950s when improved transportation infrastructure made the area more accessible to residents.
The Careel House, constructed in 1931 using locally quarried sandstone blocks, stands as an architectural landmark above the beach on Careel Head.
The beach offers various facilities including public restrooms, showers, parking spaces, and professional lifeguard patrols during weekends throughout the swimming season.
A distinctive surf break called the Wedge forms near the northern rocks when southeast winds create waves that reflect off the rock ledge.
