Curl Curl Beach

The 1.2-kilometer stretch of golden sand divides into North Curl Curl and South Curl Curl sections, with an average wave height of 1.6 meters.

The name originates from the Dharuk Aboriginal phrase 'curial curial', meaning river of life, referring to the lagoon that flows into the ocean.

Two surf lifesaving clubs, established in 1918 and 1922, maintain safety standards and organize community events throughout the swimming season.

The beach features amenities including parking spaces, changing rooms, a cafe at the southern end, and a children's pool protected from ocean waves.

A natural lagoon at the northern section creates shallow water conditions, while the southern rock pool offers swimming opportunities during all tide levels.
