ABOUT THIS BEACH
Silver Beach at Kurnell offers a calm, sheltered swimming experience thanks to its netted swimming area, making it a favourite for families and snorkelers wanting to enjoy safe, clear waters. The beach is backed by grassy areas and dunes, perfect for picnics or playing on the large playground near Point Reserve. You’ll find plenty of picnic tables - some undercover - plus toilets and showers to keep the day comfortable and hassle-free. The beach also features disability access, making it welcoming for everyone.
While there aren’t BBQs directly on the beach, the natural surroundings and peaceful vibe make Silver Beach a perfect spot to unwind, splash around at the shoreline, or explore the nearby Towra Point Aquatic Reserve. Rock walls along the shore add interest for snorkelers and fishers alike, while the western end’s dunes and grassy spots invite you to relax and take in the scenery.
