Toowoon Bay Beach

Toowoon Bay Beach is a sheltered sandy beach in the suburb of Toowoon Bay on the Central Coast of New South Wales, between Blue Bay and Shelly Beach. It faces east-southeast within a small bay protected by headlands, making it known for generally calm conditions. The beach is patrolled seasonally, features a rock pool and adjacent reserve, and is a popular family swimming and holiday destination near The Entrance.

Visitors can expect a curved, sandy bay with calm to moderate surf, bordered by low headlands and a grassy foreshore reserve. The beach has a patrolled swimming area in season, an ocean rock pool at the southern end, and views across to Blue Bay. The reserve behind the beach offers picnic tables, barbecues and a playground. The setting is residential and low-key, suitable for swimming, wading, beach walks and photography.

The Toowoon Bay area lies on the traditional lands of the Darkinjung people. The beach developed as a seaside holiday destination during the 20th century with the growth of The Entrance and Central Coast tourism, with the foreshore reserve and rock pool established to support public recreation.
