Wallaroo's Calm Beaches

The beaches fronting Wallaroo boast calm waters, ideal for families traveling with young children. North Beach seems to stretch on forever, starting at the marina and ending at the next town. Go for a stroll on the golden sand and try to find some seashells or join a game of beach volleyball. The protected waters only become deeper very gradually, so you can let the kids play with peace of mind. If you're just looking for some peace and quiet, there is plenty of room to spread out. Meanwhile, Office Beach is located closest to Wallaroo's town centre. This is a smaller beach with an enclosed swimming area next to the jetty. The waters are also quite calm and safe for children.

The Wallaroo Jetty
When many people think of Wallaroo, they think of the Jetty, one of the town's most prominent features. Go for a leisurely walk along the 869 metres of the jetty, which offers plenty of photo opportunities at all times of the day. Watch local fishermen reel in various fish or even squid. If you've brought your rod, join in. Fishing at the jetty is free.
