Turners Beach for Beginners

The swells at Turners Beach are gentle, making it a great place for those learning to surf. Situated north of the Yamba lighthouse, The best surfing on Turners Beach can be found along the southern and northern ends of the beach.

It’s a great choice for families with children who want to swim, but want the peace of mind that comes with having a professional lifeguard on hand.
