About Pearl Beach -
Pearl Beach is a tiny National Trust village where life with all its charm and friendliness has been preserved. Surrounded by Brisbane Water National Park, the lush green canopy sweeps down to the ocean and the golden curve of one of New South Wales' prettiest beaches. Less than 300 homes and development restrictions that prevent apartments and further commercial development, Pearl Beach has remained and will remain slow paced and uniquely relaxed. From the moment you start your decent down the windy road into Pearl Beach you will feel your stress levels drop. The exceptional combination of beach and nature is unique, particularly so close to Sydney.
For the energetic a walk up to the waterfall or through the National Park to Patonga is both beautiful and great exercise. There are also a large number of other walks in the Brisbane Waters National Park and the Bouddi National Park within 15 minutes by car. For those who want a more relaxed holiday, a stroll through the Arboretum, along the beach or past the rock-pool and around the headland for views over to Palm Beach might be more attractive. There is also a salt water pool, a bowling green and public tennis courts. The beach caters for those that want flat water or waves.
Just because you are out of Sydney doesn't mean you will need to sacrifice any of your creature comforts. There is a well stocked shop, a gourmet cafe (with WiFi) that does excellent coffee and eat-in or take away food.
There is even the famous Pearls on The Beach which a fully licensed restaurant that sits on the edge of the sand with amazing views.

These are for security and safety purposes only.
