North Durras beach

If you’re after somewhere genuinely peaceful without the crowds, this little stretch near Depot Beach is hard to beat. It’s the kind of spot locals keep to themselves — not much in the way of equipment or facilities, but that’s kind of the point. The beach itself does all the work, with the natural surroundings making it a solid pick for families who just want to slow down for a few hours. Kids who love exploring rock pools, collecting shells, or just running around near the water will find plenty to keep them busy.
