Betty’s Bay Swimming Lagoon

About Betty’s Bay Swimming Lagoon

Betty’s Bay Swimming Lagoon is a breathtaking natural treasure that offers a peaceful, family-friendly alternative to the crashing surf of the open ocean. Tucked away at the coastal end of Edwards Avenue, this beautiful freshwater estuary forms a calm, shallow pool right against the sand dunes of the main beach, making it an absolute paradise for toddlers, young swimmers, and paddle-boarders. Framed by a magnificent mountain backdrop, the lagoon provides a safer, warmer wading environment sheltered from the area's notorious rip currents. The location is entirely free to enter and boasts reliable mobile reception, nearby public parking, and basic restroom facilities. Perfect for a relaxed afternoon of picnicking, birdwatching, or strolling along the shore, this pristine outdoor escape is also highly welcoming to pet owners, allowing dogs to join in the coastal fun on a leash.
