North Kirra Beach

Last updated October 2026

North Kirra Beach, north of Coolangatta Creek, is described by the City of Gold Coast as one of the most protected beaches on the Gold Coast from the dominant southeast swell, so the beach tends to be wide and much quieter than other southern beaches. Lifeguards patrol Tower 5 on Pacific Parade, near North Kirra Surf Life Saving Club, between 8am and 5pm every day between November and April and during school holidays. Swim between the red and yellow flags. There are car parks at the Kirra and North Kirra surf clubs and on-street parking. The beach has a dog prohibited area. Within a short walk (OpenStreetMap): Non Solo Pizza (takeaway, about 80 m), Haig St Cafe & Restaurant (cafe, about 80 m), HiPoke (restaurant, about 80 m) and Cafe Kirra (cafe, about 80 m), plus 6 more places to eat.
