Livvi’s Place Playground

Town Beach is the closest surf beach to Port Macquarie’s town centre. It features wide sandy shores popular with surfers and families, and is backed by a large skate park, playground and beachfront kiosks. The northern end of Town Beach is part of a landscaped park (Town Beach Park) with shaded picnic areas, playground equipment and a kiosk. A painted breakwall promenade connects Town Beach to the Port Macquarie CBD – as the council notes, you can “walk along the footpath to connect you to the Port Macquarie CBD and the outlying beaches”. This paved, level pathway is lined with café and picnic spots, making it easy to access the beach and nearby amenities on foot or in a wheelchair.

Beach wheelchairs: Port Macquarie Council provides free “Sandcruiser” beach wheelchairs for hire at Town Beach (and three other patrolled beaches) during lifeguard hours. These large-wheeled chairs let users reach the waterline on sand. Borrowing a Sandcruiser is free, but you must book it (either via the surf club lifeguards or in advance by calling the Beach Safety Service at 0422 312 940). Beach wheelchairs require at least one or two assistants to push through soft sand – council guidelines warn that the sand can be hard to navigate without helpers.

Flat access paths: A paved promenade (the breakwall path) runs from the riverfront Town Green all the way to Town Beach. This pathway is flat and gently sloping, with wide ramps and surface suitable for wheelchairs, scooters or prams. Along the way are cafes, picnic tables and rest spots. In particular, this path provides wheelchair-friendly ramps down to the beachfront areas and the grassy park above the sand. (Wheelchair users note that the ramp at the river end is particularly gentle.) Because the whole route is level, prams and strollers can also move easily between the town center and Town Beach.

Accessible play and toilets: The playground at Town Beach Park includes a Liberty Swing that is designed for wheelchair users. (This swing requires a Master Locksmith Access Key (MLAK) to use – keys can be borrowed from the kiosk adjacent to the playground.) Near the playground there are public toilets – one of these is a wheelchair-friendly, MLAK-operated accessible toilet. (Other men’s and women’s restrooms also have enlarged stalls for ease of access.) The park’s facilities (toilets, picnic tables and kiosk) are all on a firm surface or boardwalk, so wheelchairs and prams can reach them without obstruction.

Nearby amenities: Town Beach Park provides car parking and picnic shelters close to the sand. There is a beachside café kiosk in the park, and the popular Salty Crew Kiosk sits right on the beachfront. The Salty Crew kiosk is easily reached by the promenade and has level access from the path. Overall, paved parking and drop-off zones are available along Stewart Street at the park, and from there it’s a short, level rollout to the beach area. Shaded picnic lawns and benches in the park are also fully accessible.

Town Beach

How to reach: Flynns Beach lies on Pacific Drive, about 5 km south of Port Macquarie’s town centre. By car, there is a public carpark off Pacific Drive adjacent to the Surf Life Saving Club. (Local guides note a marked accessible parking bay beside the surf club building.) Public buses (Busways) service Flynns Beach – for example, Route 322 runs hourly from Clarence St in Port Macquarie to Pacific Dr (opposite Leanda St) near Flynns Beach, taking ≈8 minrome2rio.com. 

Outdoors and facilities: Flynns Beach Reserve is a long grassed park running along the shore. The reserve has 8 picnic tables, 1 BBQ, seating and shelter, and a large open area for picnics. A kiosk/canteen under the Surf Club serves light meals (shop/café hours vary), and public restrooms (with showers) are on-site. The ground around the reserve and carpark is largely flat and paved (Pacific Drive and the paths to the club), making the grassy area and picnic spots wheelchair-navigable. Note that beach access from the reserve is via a gently sloping timber ramp onto the sand (with handrails), which allows wheelchairs to reach the water’s edge. (Beach-wheelchair users report this ramp is the main access pointpmhc.nsw.gov.auportmacquarieinfo.com.au.)

Indoors: The main indoor facility is the Flynns Beach Surf Life Saving Club. Its clubhouse includes the kiosk/canteen and surf club offices. (Visitor access inside the clubhouse may be limited during non-patrol hours.) The clubhouse entrance is level with the reserve area. Inside, there are standard floors and wide doorways (as the venue hosts public events and functions). Adjoining the club is a small enclosed verandah and viewing area with stairs down to the sand – however, the ramp noted above provides level access outdoors. All outdoor areas (beach reserve, paths, ramp) have concrete or timber surfaces; grass areas have compacted earth suitable for wheelchairs.

Accessible toilets: Public toilet facilities (including an accessible stall) are located in the Surf Club/Reserve area. There are men’s and women’s toilets at Flynns Beach (open 24/7); these include showers. An accessible unisex toilet is provided alongside (a “disabled” sign). These restrooms are at ground level and reached via the carpark/pathway next to the surf club. 

Extra accessibility features: Flynns Beach is patrolled during spring/summer, and the lifeguards offer Sandcruiser beach wheelchairs free of charge (with ID and waiver) to patrons when they are on dutypmhc.nsw.gov.auportmacquarieinfo.com.au. These specialized wheelchairs make it easier to get onto the sand and into the shallow water. If you plan to use one, request it from the lifeguards on duty at the surf club. Other features: shaded picnic shelter and bench seating in the reserve provide rest spots. Flynns Beach Reserve itself is part of the accessible Coastal Walk, so the path continues south toward Nobbys Beach and Shelly Beach along mostly level boardwalks.
