Bingal Bay is an open, east facing bay, occupying the 5 km of coast between Garner Beach and Clump Point (Fig. 4.21). The Bingal Bay Road reaches the coast at Bingal Bay Beach, while all six beaches in the bay are accessible by vehicle. There are some shops at Bingal Bay, but otherwise limited tourist facilities. There are three beaches in the northern part of the bay - Brooks, Bingal Bay and Bicton Hill. Bingal Bay Beach (780) lies on the south side of Ninney Point and runs for 800 m down to the rocky foreshore that fronts Clump Point National Park. It faces east and, like Brooks, can be cut by rips every 100 m during and following higher waves. The Bingal Bay Road runs behind the southern half of the beach and there is a shady camping area in the foreshore reserve. A small creek drains across the middle of the beach and there is an old rock jetty and concrete boat ramp at the southern end. The high tide beach is relatively steep, narrow and backed by coconut trees, while at low tide the bar and rip channels (if present) are exposed. read more
