Pippi Beach (NSW 44) is Yamba's surfing beach. There is good access, parking and a reserve at the northern end, though few facilities other than a toilet block, with an aboriginal community behind the centre and crown land to the south. The beach faces southeast and extends for 1.6 km from Yamba to Barri points. It receives waves averaging 1.6 m, which maintain a double bar system. The inner bar is usually attached and either continuous or cut by rips every 200-300 m. A deep trough and outer bar lie outside the first break. The northern end is patrolled by lifeguards during the summer holidays.
