SHELLY BEACH RESERVE

Public BBQ

A beautiful, well-sheltered beach reserve with plenty of shaded spots for a picnic, barbecues and picnic tables. The beach is a little rocky but the protection from the swell makes it an excellent swim and snorkel at lower tide, and the tidal pools are full of crabs and starfish for children to find. Accessibility is a genuine strength, with ramp access through to the adjoining beaches and clean amenities that include showers inside plus an external shower and bubbler at the beach entrance. Takeaway food is available just up the road. It becomes very busy over peak holidays with limited parking, so off-peak visits are far more relaxed.
