Itineraries
Broken Beach with children
Families can enjoy Broken Beach, but the unguarded cliff edge and rough access mean close supervision and a simple plan matter more than a long list of stops.
Safety first
The cliff edge is unguarded and the sea can be large. Keep children within arm's reach at the viewing rim, never let them near the lip, and turn back if the sea is rough.
Comfort and facilities
Shade and toilets are limited and not guaranteed, so bring water, hats, sunscreen and snacks. Confirm facility location with staff rather than assuming.
An easy plan
Keep the day short: Broken Beach and Angel's Billabong on the same headland, then a warung lunch, rather than a long multi-stop loop with tired kids.
- Keep children away from the cliff edge at all times.
- Carry water, hats and sunscreen.
- Choose a short, two-stop plan over a long loop.
