Steamers Beach

New South Wales

Steamers Beach is a surf beach accessed by a rough 4WD track, which can also be combined into a longer circuit. A nice and relatively secluded beach. The high, vegetation-covered sand dunes behind the beach are a result of a “mega tsunami” which occurred around 6700–7000 BC.

A wide and sandy 4WD trail (closed to vehicles) is clearly marked at the Steamers Beach car park, which continues in a southerly direction towards the coast. The last hundred metres or so are on a fairly steep and narrow path before the wide and exposed beach is reached.
