Swim between the red and yellow flags and supervise children at all times. Beach matting is installed here each patrol season and free beach wheelchairs can be booked.

Within a short walk (OpenStreetMap): Margarita Daze (restaurant, about 310 m) and The Cove at Umina Beach (takeaway, about 350 m).
