Pelican Beach
Sheltered by dramatic rocky headlands, this Central Coast gem offers calm, crystal-clear waters ideal for families and snorkellers exploring vibrant rock pools teeming with marine life. The distinctive natural rock formations create secluded coves perfect for picnicking, while patrolled swimming areas ensure safety for young children. Birdwatchers flock here to spot the resident pelican colony that gives the beach its charming name.

Stunning beach, easy to walk on. Clear water and shallow so nice for a dip. Dolphins just off shore (in October). Lots of shells. Easy walk along the beach from Soldiers beach carpark- about 1.5km

Pelicans beach part of Wyrrabalong National park is a beautiful natural and totally unspoilt beach Once there you feel so far away from everywhere
Rachel P
Beautiful beach private not the best for kids as it’s not patrolled but to spend a few hours playing in the dunes and making sandcastles it’s amazing
