10 Epic Kiama Beaches (With Parking, Surfing & Patrol Details)

10 Epic Kiama Beaches (With Parking, Surfing & Patrol Details)

Kiama is home to some of the best beaches on the South Coast of New South Wales. Sure, Kiama may be famous for its blowhole and lighthouse, but its beaches are equally impressive and just as worthwhile to visit. Beck and I have visited every single beach in Kiama so we can give you insider tips on what to expect at each beach. To that end, we’ll tell you everything you need to know about visiting every one of the spectacular ten beaches in Kiama.

Kiama Beaches Guide: An Overview

If you want to unwind on beautiful beaches near Sydney with turquoise-coloured water, you’ll want to head to the Kiama area. There are exactly ten beaches in the Municipality of Kiama, which stretches from Minnamurra to Gerroa.

Each of these beaches in the Kiama area offers something a little different in terms of landscape, facilities, accessibility and overall experience. So, hopping along the Kiama Coast to see each beach is more than reasonable. That’s exactly what Beck and I did. Or, you may just want to spend your time or a whole holiday at one beach that particularly piques your interest. There’s nothing wrong with that either!

Either way, this guide will help you decide what beaches in Kiama to visit. We’ll provide all of the nitty-gritty details about each beach, including its location as well as links for directions and parking. Then, we’ll talk about whether the beach is patrolled and whether beachfront accommodation is available. On top of that, we’ll talk about the beach’s key facilities and provide other useful links so you can check things like current surf conditions.

After that, we’ll provide specific details about the best Kiama beaches for swimming and surfing. Also, we’ll talk about the beaches that have wheelchair accessibility and dog-friendly zones. Finally, we’ll include some details about all of the rock pools in Kiama.

10 Awesome Beaches in Kiama

Let’s dive into the 10 best beaches in Kiama! Below, we haven’t ordered the beaches regarding the best to worst or anything like that. We’ve simply ordered them from north to south.

1. Minnamurra Beach

An aerial shot of a beach called Minnamurra Beach near Kiama

Minnamurra Beach, which is known as Mystics by the locals, is a stunning 1.5km long golden sand beach located in the Killalea Regional Park. It stretches from a rocky headland in the north to Minnamurra Headland in the south. At the southern end of the beach, you’ll find the mouth of the Minnamurra River and Stack Island (AKA Rangoon Island).

To directly access the beach, you’ll need to drive through the Killalea Regional Park to reach the beach’s large car park. Along the way, you’ll pass Killalea Beach and the turnoff for the Killalea Campground. From the car park, you’ll follow the short yet steep Mystics Walking Track to arrive at the beach.

The other way to access the beach is by swimming across the Minnamurra River from Minnamurra. Of course, this is a far less convenient and safe option.

Given the superb untouched nature of the beach and its surrounds, you won’t find much in the way of facilities. But, that certainly adds to the natural ambience.

Unfortunately, Minnamurra Beach isn’t patrolled and is prone to rips. So, only strong swimmers should go for a dip. The best place to swim is at the southern end of the beach but at a safe distance from the mouth of Minnamurra River, where there can be strong tidal flows.

FYI – the beach shares its name with the adjacent town, river, rainforest and waterfall. With this said, Beck and I highly recommend visiting Minnamurra Falls in the Minnamurra Rainforest.

2. Jones Beach

  • Location: Kiama Downs (Google Maps)
  • Parking: Jones Beach Car Park
  • Toilets/changing rooms: Yes (map)
  • Patrols: Yes (details below)
  • Surf conditions: Surf-Reports
  • Beachfront Accommodation: Yes
  • Ideal for: surfers, families and people requiring wheelchair accessibility
An areial shot of a beach called Jones Beach in Kiama

Jones Beach (AKA Boyd Beach) is a serene long beach in Kiama Downs. Located just south of Minnamurra Beach, the roughly 1km golden sand beach stretches from Minnamurra Headland to the basalt columns of Cathedral Rocks.

Similar to Bombo Beach, Jones Beach doesn’t attract the same amount of visitors as some of the beaches in and around the town of Kiama. So, compared with other beaches in Kiama, you can expect fewer people at this equally beautiful beach. That’s one reason Beck and I enjoyed visiting this beach.

There is a moderate-sized car park on North Kiama Drive, which makes access to the beach very easy. In between the car park and the Kiama Downs Surf Life Saving Club, you’ll find a toilet block to get changed.

The beach is patrolled, usually between late September to late April on weekends and public holidays. During the summer school holidays from mid-December to late January, the beach is patrolled Monday to Friday excluding public holidays.

FYI – if you enjoy photography, you’ll want to head to Cathedral Rocks at sunset. That’s exactly what Beck and I did. We talk more about this experience in our Kiama Day Trip Guide.

3. Boneyard Beach (The Boneyard)

  • Location: Kiama Downs (Google Maps)
  • Parking: Small parking area at the end of Cliff Drive (map)
  • Toilets/changing rooms: No
  • Patrols: No
  • Surf conditions: Surf-Forecast
  • Beachfront Accommodation: No
  • Ideal for: surfers

Boneyard Beach (AKA The Boneyard) isn’t your typical Kiama beach. Similar to Black Beach yet unlike most of the beaches in Kiama, Boneyard Beach is a small and sheltered pebble beach. Again, similar to Black Beach, Boneyard Beach is characterised by volcanic black basalt pebbles.

Sure, Boneyard Beach is a natural spectacle that’s interesting to explore. Beck and I checked it out during the Kiama Coastal Walk. But, honestly speaking, Boneyard Beach was one of our least favourite beaches in Kiama. After all, we much prefer the long stretches of golden sand, that you’ll find at most of the Kiama beaches.

One thing that the Boneyard Beach has going for it is optimal surf breaks. Otherwise, many other beaches in Kiama are better for families and non-surfers.

Given Boneyard Beach is a little off the beaten track, you won’t find much in the way of facilities. You can access the beach via several walking tracks from the end of Cliff Drive in Kiama Downs.

4. Bombo Beach

  • Location: Kiama Downs (Google Maps)
  • Parking: Bombo Beach Car Park
  • Toilets/changing rooms: Yes
  • Patrols: Yes (details below)
  • Surf conditions: Surf-Reports
  • Beachfront Accommodation: Yes
  • Ideal for: surfers and families
Beck at Bombo Beach during the Kiama Coastal Walk

Running alongside the Grand Pacific Drive, Bombo Beach is another gorgeous long beach in Kiama Downs. Having similar vibes to Jones Beach, Bombo Beach is another glorious stretch of golden sand without the crowds (even in summer). The 1.2km beach stretches from Bombo Headland in the north to Pheasant Point in the south.

Other than being a gorgeous beach itself, the beach’s headlands are truly magnificent. Bombo Headland is home to a former quarry and geological site. While, Pheasant Point, if safe to explore (tide and swell depending), is home to unnamed hidden blowholes. Indeed, Beck and I enjoyed exploring the headlands of Bombo Beach, just as much as the beach itself.

The northern end of the beach is easy to access via the beach’s main car park, which is where you’ll find a toilet block. This end of the beach is also patrolled during the summer school holidays from mid-December to late January.

Bonus tip: head to Bombo Headland for sunrise. The headland provides one of the best sunrise spots on the South Coast of New South Wales.

5. Black Beach

  • Location: Kiama Harbour (Google Maps)
  • Parking: Shoalhaven Street
  • Toilets/changing rooms: Yes (Black Beach Reserve)
  • Patrols: No
  • Beachfront Accommodation: No but there are options nearby in Kiama
  • Ideal for: snorkelers and rock pool swimmers
An aerial shot of Kiama Harbour and Black Beach
Kiama Harbour and Black Beach

Similar to Boneyard Beach, Black Beach (as the name suggests) is a black sand and pebble beach. Unlike Boneyard Beach, Black Beach isn’t off the beaten track.

Black Beach is located in the heart of Kiama next to Kiama Harbour and Blowhole Point. So, many visitors walking the coastal trails in the town of Kiama will simply pass Black Beach rather than visit it as a standalone attraction. Indeed, most visitors heading to Blowhole Point are there to see the famous Kiama Blowhole and Kiama Lighthouse rather than Black Beach.

Albeit, Black Beach is a popular place for snorkelling. So, if you’re keen on seeing some marine life, you may want to head straight to Black Beach. As well, many locals head to the rock pool at Black Beach (AKA Continental Ocean Pool and Olympic Pool) for a morning dip.

In theory, access to the beach should be simple as there is plenty of streetside parking along Shoalhaven Street in the town of Kiama. But, during peak visitor times on the weekend and during school holidays and summer, these parking areas fill up quickly.

You’ll find a toilet block conveniently located at Black Beach Reserve, which is right next to the beach.

6. Kiama Surf Beach

  • Location: Kiama (Google Maps)
  • Parking: Yes (details below)
  • Toilets/changing rooms: Yes
  • Patrols: Yes (details below)
  • Surf conditions: Surf-Reports
  • Beachfront Accommodation: Yes – Kiama Surf Beach Holiday Park
  • Ideal for: surfers, families and people requiring wheelchair accessibility
An aerial shot of a surf beach in Kiama

Kiama Surf Beach has long been Kiama’s main beach. Given its prime location near Kiama’s main streets and shops, it’s perhaps the most popular beach in Kiama. Of course, other than its ideal location, the dazzling blue waters and outstanding surf breaks are enough to attract visitors.

The embayed beach is only around 270 metres long. So, it’s much smaller than the beaches in Kiama Downs. At Church Point, north of the beach, you’ll find the Kiama Showground. While, at Kendalls Point, immediately south of the beach, you’ll find Kiama Surf Beach Holiday Park. At the centre of the beach, there is the Kiama Surf Life Saving Club as well as a park and playground.

You’ll find there is plenty of parking at Kiama Surf Beach. There is a car park off Manning Street at the northern end of the beach as well as a car park off Barney Street at the southern end of the beach. On top of that, there is plenty of streetside parking on Manning Street, which faces opposite the beach.

There are toilets and changing rooms at the Surf Life Saving Club, which makes a day out at the beach with the family super convenient.

Generally speaking, Kiama Surf Beach is patrolled daily from the September school holidays through to the April school holidays. Certainly, it’s the beach that’s patrolled the most in Kiama. This makes sense given its popularity.

7. Kendalls Beach

An aerial shot of a beach called Kendalls Beach in Kiama

Located immediately south of Kiama Surf Beach, Kendalls Beach is easily one of the most spectacular beaches in Kiama. Similar in size to Kiama Surf Beach, Kendalls Beach is around 380 metres long. The breathtaking golden sand beach is positioned between Kendall Point, to the north, and Kaleula Head, to the south.

Chapman Point Reserve backs the northern end of the beach. The rest of the beach is backed by a dreamy holiday park called Kendalls On The Beach. At the southern end of the beach, you’ll find another small grassy reverse called Kendalls Beach Reserve as well as a small lagoon.

At either reserve, you’ll find formal parking areas. There are also 15 spaces at the end of O’Keefe Place, where you’ll find two disabled parking spots. From all of these parking areas, you’ll be able to access the beach quickly and easily. You’re also welcome to use the amenities block at Kendalls On The Beach to get changed or to use the loo.

Usually, during summer holidays, the beach is patrolled daily. Albeit, thankfully, Kendalls Beach is usually free of rips. Indeed, it’s often a safer and calmer beach to swim at compared with Kiama Surf Beach. Of course, always check the swell forecast and conditions before heading out for a swim.

8. Easts Beach

A beach in Kiama called Easts Beach backed by a holiday park and rolling green hills

Easts Beach is one of the best beaches in Kiama and perhaps our favourite beach in the area given its exquisite beauty. This southernmost beach of Kiama actually has very similar vibes to Kendalls Beach. At 350 metres long, it’s a similar size to Kendalls Beach. On top of that, the beach is also backed by a holiday park called BIG4 Easts Beach Holiday Park.

Easts Beach is well-hidden and appears to be a private beach for guests at the holiday park. But, like all Australian beaches, it’s public property and open to anyone to visit. With this said, there isn’t an official car park for the beach. You’ll have to find street parking and then find a trail leading to the beach. Your best bet is to look for parking on Ocean Street, Marsden Street or Tingira Crescent.

Regarding facilities, technically, there aren’t really any for the public. Most of the facilities and amenities are for guests at the BIG4 Easts Beach Holiday Park. With this said, the public often uses the beachside amenities block.

And, of course, the beach patrol service is accessible to all, running over the summer school holidays from mid-December to the end of January. Similar to Kendalls Beach, Easts Beach usually has gentler waves and calmer waters. So, Easts Beach, in Kiama, is another family-friendly beach.

9. Werri Beach

Beck sits on a bench looking at a beach called Werri Beach

Werri Beach is a beautiful 1.5km long beach in Gerringong near Kiama. It’s the main beach in Gerringong, featuring high headlands at either end. In between the northern Red Cliff and southern Werri Point, you’ll find a brilliantly curved horse-shoe style beach featuring a lagoon. Beck and I enjoyed the spectacular views of the beach from either headland as much as strolling along the beach itself.

The beach is easy to access with car parks at either end. Admittedly, the southern end of the beach has more parking spaces. That’s because the southern end is where the beach is patrolled and it’s also where you’ll find an ocean rock pool (Ourie Pool). So, more people access the southern end of the beach.

The beach is patrolled daily over the summer holidays between mid-December and late January. Between the end of September and before the summer school holidays, the beach is patrolled on weekends and public holidays.

Overall, the beach has great facilities, amenities and accessibility, while Gerringong’s town centre is conveniently located nearby. Facing opposite Werri Beach, you’ll also find Werri Beach Holiday Park, which offers superb beachfront accommodation.

10. Seven Mile Beach

  • Location: Gerroa (Google Maps)
  • Parking: Yes (details below)
  • Toilets/changing rooms: Yes (map)
  • Patrols: Yes (details below)
  • Surf conditions: Surf-Reports
  • Beachfront Accommodation: Yes – Seven Mile Beach Holiday Park
  • Ideal for: surfers, families, nature seekers and people requiring wheelchair accessibility
A couple walks along a beach called Seven Mile Beach in Gerroa, which is backed by bushland.

As the name suggests, Seven Mile Beach is one very long beach, measuring 12km. Stretching from Gerroa in the north to Shoalhaven Heads in the south, Seven Mile Beach features a sensational stretch of fine white sand. As well, Seven Mile Beach National Park occupies the central part of the beach and the surrounding bushland.

Given the length of the beach, there are many different access points. These include accessing the beach at the northern end from Gerroa, where you can find small parking areas at Crooked River Road and Burke Parade. You can also access the southern end from the Shoalhaven Heads Surf Life Saving Club Car Park on McIntosh Street. To visit Seven Mile Beach National Park, you’ll park at the Beach Road Picnic Area on Beach Road.

Personally speaking, Beck and I mostly explored the middle area of the beach. Although, this area is never patrolled. Only certain areas of the beach are patrolled during the summer school holidays. The Shoalhaven Heads Surf Club patrol the southern end of the beach and the Kiama Municipal Council Lifeguard Service patrol the northern end of the beach.

So, there are many ways to explore this awe-inspiring beach. If you want to explore walking and cycling tracks, we recommend heading to Seven Mile Beach National Park. But, for a more family-friendly beach experience, we recommend going to either end of the beach during the school summer holidays.

Bonus Beach: Killalea Beach

So, that’s all of the nitty-gritty details about all of the beaches in the Kiama area. Below, we’ve got a bonus beach near Kiama that you should also consider visiting.

Dan on a wooden steps leading to The Farm, which is located in the Killalea Regional Park

The reason we have included Killalea Beach (AKA The Farm), although it falls outside the Municipality of Kiama, is that you’ll literally pass by it to get to Minnamurra Beach. So, it makes sense to have Killalea Beach on your radar when visiting beaches in Kiama. Certainly, Killalea Beach in the Killalea Regional Park is one of the best beaches near Kiama.

Backed by barrier dunes and Killalea Lagoon, Killalea Beach is a beautiful 600 metre long beach with remarkable surfing conditions. Indeed, the beach is a famous surfing spot, with surfers all over New South Wales, heading there to experience the legendary surf breaks. Because the beach isn’t patrolled and is prone to rips, it’s not exactly the best place to take the kids swimming. Thankfully, there are plenty of other great family-friendly beaches in Kiama.

To access Killalea Beach, you can follow the short Surfers Track from The Farm Kiosk. Alternatively, you can park at the southern end of the beach.

Like Minnamurra Beach, Killalea Beach doesn’t have much in the way of facilities. This makes sense as it falls in a Regional Park. Although, there are toilets at The Farm Kiosk that you can use.

  • Werri Beach

Otherwise, there are plenty of off-leash areas at reserves and headlands between beaches in Kiama. These include, from north to south, Minnamurra Headland, Bombo Headland, Kaleula Reserve, Marsden Headland and Gerringong Headland (Werri Point).

Wheelchair-Accessibility at Kiama Beaches

Kiama prides itself on being an inclusive tourism destination. To that end, many of its beaches provide wheelchair-accessible paths and facilities.

The surf life-saving clubs at both Kiama Surf Beach and Jones Beach provide beach wheelchairs for hire during patrol hours. Beach wheelchair hire is also possible at the Seven Mile Beach Holiday Park office during patrol hours.

In addition, Kendalls On The Beach provides accessible cabins for those with mobility impairments.

Below, we’ve listed beaches in Kiama with wheelchair-accessible facilities such as wheelchair-friendly paths and toilets.

Kiama Coastal Walk: See All the Beaches

There is one unique way to see all of the beaches in Kiama in a single day. That involves doing the sensational yet underrated Kiama Coastal Walk (AKA the Kiama Coast Walk and Kiama Beach Walk). Beck and I rate the Kiama Coastal Walk as one of the best coastal walks in New South Wales. Certainly, doing this coastal walk is one amazing way to experience all of the beaches in Kiama.

Where to Stay in Kiama

Are you heading to Kiama for a weekend or a family holiday? There are loads of great accommodation options in Kiama, Gerringong and Gerroa. But, if you want to maximise your time at a beach in Kiama, you may want to consider staying at beachfront accommodation.

The best beachfront accommodation in Kiama are located at holiday parks dotted along several beaches along the Kiama Coast. Indeed, most of these holiday parks provide incredible uninterrupted views of the beach.

For your convenience, we’ve listed all of the beachfront holiday parks in Kiama below.

Enjoy unparalleled views of the ocean from your beachside accommodation at any one of these holiday parks in Kiama.

Otherwise, feel free to read our other Kiama accommodation guides to help you suss out the right place for you and your family or friends to stay.

How to Get to Kiama

It’s possible to use public transport to get to Kiama and its beaches. There is a train station near Bombo Beach (Bombo Station). As well, Kiama Station is close to Black Beach and Kiama Surf Beach. On top of that, Gerringong Station is around a 2km walk from Werri Beach.

To reach other beaches in Kiama, you’ll need to get a bus from Bombo, Kiama or Gerringong Stations. We recommend using the Transport NSW Trip Planner or app to help plan your journey.

Just so you’re aware, Minnamurra Station is great for accessing Minnamurra River but you won’t have direct access to Minnamurra Beach. As mentioned, you’ll have to drive to Killalea Regional Park to directly access both Killalea Beach and Minnamurra Beach as there is no public transport going to the park.

Overall, by far the easiest and quickest way to get to beaches in Kiama is to drive. Certainly, if you want the ultimate freedom to explore the Kiama Coast, we recommend driving there and having a vehicle to get around.
