Fishing amenities
With both river and beach access – we are a fisherman’s dream! You can enjoy surf, rock and estuary fishing. We have bait and tackle available to purchase onsite and a cleaning table and hose area to clean your fish!
Whale & dolphin watching
At South Ballina Beach you will encounter dolphins and humpback whales in their natural habitat – as they migrate past the coastline between Ballina and Byron Bay. You can keep a look-out from the shore, or perhaps you’ll opt for an organised boat cruise.
