Ballina Surfing Beaches

Whether you have a toddler who is dipping their toes in for the first time, or a world-class surfer, with over 32 kilometres of coastline to choose from, it’s easy to find the ideal swimming or surfing spot in Ballina.

There are calm sandy beaches and shoals on the banks of the Richmond River, rising swells perfect for a body bash at one of the many beaches and there are often perfect barrels rolling of North Wall and the world famous right hand break at Lennox Point.

There are beaches that allow four wheel drive vehicle access and some that allow dogs and horses. Local operators offer horse riding on isolated beaches, both north and south of Ballina. It’s the stuff that postcards are made of.
