BLACKS BEACH

Public BBQ

The Esplanade at Blacks Beach hosts a straightforward BBQ setup that capitalizes on its oceanfront real estate without any pretense. Hotplates and picnic tables provide the essentials for families wanting to cook lunch while children exhaust themselves at the adjacent playground. The coastal panorama serves as decent compensation for the lack of frills. Toilets sit within manageable walking distance, and nearby parking proves invaluable when hauling eskies, beach paraphernalia, and offspring who've abruptly lost all locomotive ability. This is where one cooks snags, contemplates the water, and resists the urge to complicate matters. The amenities follow a simple algorithm: cook, consume, recreate, repeat. Nothing elaborate, which happens to be the entire philosophy behind a proper beachside barbie.
