ONE MILE BEACH RESERVE

Public BBQ

One Mile Beach Reserve proves itself a genuine Port Stephens gem, offering that increasingly rare combination of excellent surf breaks and calm swimming areas within the same stretch of sand. The beach manages to feel refreshingly secluded despite its accessibility, with patrolled swimming areas marked by flags providing peace of mind for families. What sets this spot apart is the thoughtful infrastructure - proper shower facilities and a well-equipped eatery sit just a short stroll from the sand, sparing visitors the usual beach day logistics headaches. The reserve caters brilliantly to different needs, whether you're chasing waves or simply want safe swimming for the kids. The playground adds another family-friendly dimension, though it's the beach itself that remains the star attraction. While some might grumble about the occasional feral cat situation, this coastal reserve delivers a genuinely satisfying day out that justifies its loyal following among locals who've discovered this particular slice of NSW coastline perfection.
