Brooms Head

Brooms Head is a small coastal village and beach in the Clarence Valley local government area on the far north coast of New South Wales, enclosed by Yuraygir National Park. Its main beach is a long, sandy, south-facing stretch backed by dunes and Lake Cakora, known for consistent surf, safe swimming areas and fishing. The village centres on a beachfront caravan park and reserve, offering a quiet, nature-based coastal experience away from larger towns.

Visitors can expect a quiet, low-key coastal village set between the Pacific Ocean and Lake Cakora, surrounded by Yuraygir National Park. The main ocean beach is a wide sandy beach with dunes, a patrolled area in peak periods, and a rocky headland at the southern end. The foreshore reserve includes the Brooms Head Holiday Park, picnic and barbecue areas, playground and walking tracks. Activities centre on swimming, surfing, fishing from beach and rocks, lake kayaking, coastal walks and camping.
