What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Little Beach is a picturesque and secluded spot, praised for its natural beauty and suitability for family exploration with its shell-strewn shores. However, visitors should be prepared for the challenging walk to access the beach and the basic camping amenities, including the lack of water and flush toilets.
"Very nice little beach 🏖 with lots of little shells and rocks to keep the kids busy. The camping site is like real camping style, grass patch and 2 toilets. You can't get to the site with your car so everything you camp with you have to carry down and uphill for 750m."
Tamara La Marca
"Really nice little beach, nice walk down from the national park isn't to hard but there's a few big steps. Nice views of the headlands on ether side and a small camping area with picnic tables and bins."
Rory
"good semi secluded camping ground.
quiet and picturesque. local wallaby will frequent camp site in the mornings and afternoon. keep food stored away and the bush turkeys will try and take what they can get.
camping is booked via national parks nsw and check the info (no water and no flush toilet the only reasons why it loses a star).
recommend to park at grahame drive, and a trolley for camping/day picnic. don't pack to heavy as its mainly uphill back to car park."
