Things to do

A walk around Broulee Island Reserve is a must when visiting the area. The island is connected to the mainland by a permanent sand spit, with the 4km walk offering beautiful views, native plants and marine birdlife. There are also vantage points to see migrating whales between May and November, and a surf break at Pinks Point. Walk north from Broulee Surf Club, or south along North Broulee Beach.

Broulee Beach is dog-friendly and your four-legged friends are welcome 24 hours a day. You can learn to surf or stand up paddleboard at Broulee Surf School and Surf the Bay Surf School, or hire a SUP and go exploring on the rivers and creeks near Broulee. The aqua marine water is clear and there is so much to see, including large spotted stingrays, soldier crabs, eagle rays and a rich array of birdlife.
