Looking for a coastal adventure that offers both stunning views and flexibility? The Yuraygir Coastal Walk starting from Angourie Point is the perfect way to explore the wild beauty of the NSW coastline—on your own terms. Whether you're in for a long stroll or a shorter, relaxed wander, this section of the track allows you to immerse yourself in the natural wonders of Yuraygir National Park, then turn back whenever you're ready.

Begin at Angourie Point

Your journey starts at Angourie Point, a mecca for surfers and nature lovers alike. Famous for its powerful waves, Angourie offers more than just surf—it's also the gateway to one of the most breathtaking walks in the area. Before setting off, why not dip into the Angourie Blue and Green Pools? These freshwater swimming holes are a refreshing pre-walk stop and offer the perfect start to your adventure.

The Walk: Take It at Your Own Pace

The beauty of the Yuraygir Coastal Walk lies not just in the scenery, but in its flexibility. You can walk as far as your legs—or your time—allow. The trail heads south from Angourie, taking you through an ever-changing landscape of rugged headlands, sandy beaches, and coastal bushland. The ocean is a constant companion, with the sound of waves crashing and the occasional dolphin sighting adding to the experience.

Feel free to explore at your own pace—walk for an hour, two, or three, and when you're ready, simply turn around and retrace your steps. Every vantage point along the way offers something different: one moment you're crossing a sandy dune, the next you're on a clifftop with panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean. It’s as invigorating or as leisurely as you want it to be.

Nature at its Best

As you walk, you’ll be surrounded by the raw beauty of nature. The diverse ecosystems of Yuraygir National Park are teeming with wildlife—from kangaroos grazing in the bushland to sea eagles soaring overhead. The track also offers glimpses of traditional Aboriginal lands, adding a sense of history and cultural significance to your coastal journey.
