Fingal Bay, NSW

A picturesque coastal village with a relaxed ‘holiday’ vibe – the Fingal Bay neighbourhood is an idyllic location where good surf, friendly locals and a relaxed atmosphere meet on the sand.

With a good range of accommodation from a Beachside Holiday Park and seaside resort, to luxury homes, families come year after year and make holiday memories that last a lifetime.

Fingal Beach is a glorious white sand beach tucked under Fingal Head. This family-friendly, patrolled surf beach is perfect to catch a wave, catch a fish, or just catch a sunrise on your early morning walk or for a relaxing Sunday afternoon drink overlooking the beach.

There are plenty of lookouts to take in the sweeping vistas of rocky coastlines and the passing parade of humpback whales – Barry Park at the northern headland has a whale-watching platform and picnic area.

Fingal Spit is a sand spit that links the mainland to Fingal Island. The island is still accessible by boat and well worth taking a cruise which includes a fully guided nature walk visiting an Aboriginal fish trap lagoon, as well as Point Stephens Lighthouse and ruined caretakers cottage.
