Coastal town offering wide sandy beaches, a sculpted river mouth/estuary and low headland views — ideal for surf, long-exposure seascapes, birdlife and pastel sunrises. Visit at dawn for golden hour over the surf or at low tide to expose rocks and tidal pools. Parking is available near Park St and beach access is mostly wheelchair-friendly; no entry fee. Note Evans Head Aerodrome nearby — check drone rules. Weekday mornings are least crowded.
