Cronulla Beach is situated on the Bate Bay coastline in Sydney’s south. Its unique name originated from the Aboriginal word “kurranulla,” which means “a place of pink seashells.” One of the great features of this beach is that it is the only Sydney beach that can be reached by train, so forget those troubles about having to search for a carpark – we all know how much of a headache that can be! Located close to the sand are the Cronulla Pavilion and Cronulla Surf Life Saving Club as well as a café and restaurant. There is also a large grassy area with a playground, the Cronulla Rock Pools, and a mysterious and dangerous reef break called Shark Island. Rest assured that Cronulla beaches are patrolled all year round by the Sutherland Shire Council’s professional lifeguards. Head down to Cronulla for a fantastic day at the beach – it has everything you need such as gelato, fish and chips, and all the surfing equipment for a rocking day at the beach!
