πŸ“– About Handkerchief Beach

Handkerchief Beach sits about 4 km south of Narooma on the NSW South Coast, stretching 930 metres between rocky headlands along Barunga Point. It is well-known for powerful surf and the unique combination of ocean beach and Nangudga Lake at its northern end, which can offer calmer swimming in the lagoon. The beach is popular with anglers, campers, and surfers seeking a wilder, less-patrolled stretch of the Eurobodalla coastline.
