Suburb Spotlight: Boomerang Beach – Coastal Bliss on the NSW North Coast
Tucked away on the stunning New South Wales Mid North Coast, Boomerang Beach is one of the Pacific Palms region’s most cherished gems—a destination where world-class surf meets laid-back village charm. Whether you’re chasing waves, seeking tranquillity, or looking for that perfect beachfront holiday home, Boomerang Beach offers a little slice of paradise for every kind of holidaymaker.
From its sweeping shoreline to the relaxed rhythm of local life, Boomerang Beach is a suburb that delivers on every front—natural beauty, adventure, great food, and premium accommodation.
A Surfer’s Playground
There’s a reason surfers make a beeline for Boomerang Beach—it’s consistently ranked as one of the best surfing beaches on the east coast of Australia. Facing southeast, the beach receives steady swells year-round, with reliable right and left-hand breaks that cater to all levels, from novice board riders to seasoned pros.
The beach is patrolled during peak seasons, making it a safe spot for families too. Surfers can often be spotted paddling out at sunrise, chasing glassy morning sets, while beginners can book a lesson with one of the region’s friendly surf schools. With its crystal-clear waters and pristine sand, Boomerang is also ideal for bodysurfing, swimming, or simply watching the action from the shore.
More Than Just the Beach
While the ocean is undeniably the star of the show, Boomerang Beach offers much more than just waves. Framed by national parks and native bushland, this peaceful enclave is the perfect base for exploring the broader Pacific Palms area.
Wander the nearby coastal tracks for stunning lookouts over the Pacific, or keep your eyes peeled for dolphins and migrating whales from the southern headland during the winter months. For something a little more grounded, explore the local flora and fauna within Booti Booti National Park, just minutes away.
Snorkelling and diving enthusiasts can head to nearby Shelly Beach or Blueys Beach for calmer waters and vibrant underwater ecosystems.
Local Eats & Coastal Café Culture
Boomerang Beach is well-serviced with a string of relaxed, local eateries just a short stroll or drive away. Head to Blueys Beach village for your morning caffeine fix, with a handful of boutique cafes offering artisan coffee, fresh pastries, and hearty breakfast options. Kembali Café is a favourite, serving Indonesian-inspired fare with a coastal twist, whilst Sips at Mobys, located poolside, is your go-to for great cocktails. This restaurant and bar serves fresh seafood and seasonal produce, ideal for a relaxed lunch or dinner.
Stay Beachfront—Accommodation That Wows
One of Boomerang Beach’s biggest drawcards is the incredible range of holiday homes that back directly onto the sand. Imagine waking to the sound of waves crashing just metres from your window, enjoying coffee on your deck while watching the sunrise over the ocean, or walking straight from your backyard onto the beach for a morning dip.
Pacific Palms Holidays manages a curated portfolio of Boomerang Beach accommodation, from luxurious architect-designed homes to family-friendly beach cottages, all offering unrivalled access to the coastline. Many of these homes come equipped with spacious outdoor entertaining areas, panoramic ocean views, fire pits, and even outdoor hot showers for rinsing off after a salty swim.
For couples seeking a romantic getaway, there are cosy one-bedroom retreats nestled among the dunes, offering seclusion, privacy, and style. Larger groups and families will love the expansive multi-bedroom homes with open-plan living, high-end kitchens, and enough space for everyone to spread out and relax.
