Jimmys Beach is sheltered from the ocean and protected from summer northeast winds making it an ideal place for kids. There's very little surf and is perfect for swimming.
The beach stretches in a five-kilometre arc from the mouth of the Myall River to Yacaaba Headland. The water is always clear and there are great views across Port Stephens.
This beach is not patrolled.
Dogs can be walked on leads only at certain times in the morning and evening on the Yacaaba end on the beach.
