Dudley Beach
Dudley Beach is a secluded sandy shore within Glenrock State Conservation Area near Newcastle, valued for its quiet setting and coastal scenery. Visitors can picnic on the sand, paddle along the shoreline and explore the fossilised forest exposed in the southern rock platform at low tide. The beach is unpatrolled and may experience strong currents and rips, while access is provided from Dudley Beach car park, including an accessible space.
