Why it's worth checking out
Boulder Beach sits near Lennox Head, on the beautiful NSW Northern Rivers coast between Ballina and Byron Bay. A strong 4.7 rating from 36 reviews reflects its standing as a genuine highlight.
The appeal is a wild, natural stretch of coast — a lovely, quieter beach known for its boulder-strewn setting and lovely surrounds, a genuine favourite for a walk, a surf, some solitude or simply soaking up the scenery away from the crowds. It's a lovely, free outing.
Beaches have changing conditions, tides and seasonal considerations, and this is a quieter, less-patrolled stretch, so check current details and take care in the water. Otherwise it's a free spot to enjoy whenever the weather's good — bring sun protection, water and sturdy footwear.
