This is our go-to swimming spot down at Lennox, there is a shower at the top of the path which means no sandy feet in the car.

Also known as Missingham Bridge, this is a great spot (when the water is clear) for kids. There is a little wave (ideal if they're learning to surf), lots of other families, it's shallow for quite a way out and super safe.
