Kings Beach (Nude)

Kings Beach sits near Broken Head Nature Reserve, reached by car from Byron Bay along Broken Head Reserve Road toward Seven Mile Beach Road. From the parking area, follow the marked Kings Beach Track downhill with steep steps to the sand. Allow around 10-15 minutes each way and expect a demanding climb back, especially in warm weather. Wear sturdy footwear for the track and carry swim gear separately. There is no direct public transport, so plan on a private vehicle or taxi and arrive in the morning when parking is easier to find. The beach itself has no toilets, showers, drinking water, food shops or lifeguard service. Bring sufficient water, food, sun protection, a shade cover and a bag for all rubbish. Secure food from birds. Natural shade exists toward the back near vegetation, but midday sun is strong and wind can be noticeable. Set up away from cliff bases and unstable rock faces where erosion has been a concern. Swimming suits confident ocean swimmers when surf is up, while rock pools can be usable in calm conditions. There is no supervision, so check surf, swim conservatively and avoid isolated rock areas. Warm-season months suit sunbathing and swimming, while cooler months can feel windy. Allow enough daylight for the return climb and keep gear light enough to carry uphill. No beach admission fee is reported, but bring all supplies as there are no shops on site. A half-day visit is practical because steep access, limited shade and lack of facilities make longer stays harder. Keep the visit simple, pack light, and leave the sand as found.
