Located on the other side of the Pambula Rivermouth and nestled inside Ben Boyd National Park, Barmouth Beach is a firm favorite for those who like to get a little off the beaten track.

 

Accessible approximately 9km south of Pambula, turn left into Haycock Point Road to enter Ben Boyd National Park.  Barmouth Beach Road is on the left a few kilometres in - look for the sign.  It's a short drive to the carpark, then about a 200m walk down the hill to the beach, or look for the walking track leading out to the headland towards 'Old Man Rock'.

 

Barmouth Beach is a beaut little spot to spend the day with a picnic lunch and is popular for exploring rock pools, snorkeling, swimming, fishing, surfing and stand-up paddling.  It is suitable for small children but there is the 200m walk back uphill to the carpark.
