Cactus Beach, Surfing beach in Penong, South Australia

The beach extends along a pristine coastline with white sand dunes, offering three distinct surf breaks named Cactus, Caves, and Castles.

The beach gained recognition in the surfing community during the early exploration of Australian coastal areas, becoming a designated Coastal Protection Reserve.

Local surfers maintain an unwritten code of respect at the beach, limiting social media exposure to preserve the natural character of this location.

Visitors should bring their own drinking water, as the campground, located 21 kilometers from Penong, provides basic facilities for 25 dollars per night.

The beach creates natural surfing conditions with two left-hand and one right-hand breaks, while great white sharks frequent these waters.
