BROADWATER BEACH PICNIC AREA

Public BBQ

A quiet, isolated picnic area in coastal bush above a wide, exposed beach, a short drive off the motorway. There are picnic tables, a gas barbecue and a long drop toilet, and people do park overnight here. The walk down to the sand is short but steep, with a sandy slope at the bottom that will stop anyone unsteady on their feet. The beach itself is superb: white sand, high dunes, coffee rock formations and enough space that it stays quiet even on hot days. It is unpatrolled with good swell exposure, and four-wheel drives are permitted on the sand. There are no bins, no fresh water and very little shade, so come prepared and carry everything out.
