Overview

On the other side of the peninsula from Cronulla's main drag, you'll find some of the bluest waters the area has to offer. Gunnamatta Bay is the type of oasis that you wouldn't expect to find right next to the train line. But it is, making it easily accessible for those arriving in Cronulla via public transport.

The area has everything needed for a perfect family day out — a large expanse of parklands with ample shade and an impressive playground, plus toilet facilities and wave-free swimming areas. The biggest attraction is Gunnamatta Bay Tidal Baths, a netted swimming area enclosed by an elevated wooden boardwalk, which is an irresistible jumping off point for adventurous kids, and a popular place for adults to swim laps.
