Freshwater Town Centre

Freshwater Beach, wedged between two headlands, is definitely a favourite spot amongst locals. A great beach for families, it is relatively small and perfectly located between the iconic Manly and Curl Curl Beaches. Swimming at Freshwater Beach began back in the early 1900s when campers would holiday close to the beach.

A small creek running out the north end of the beach provided fresh water for the campers and gave the beach its name. After a dip at the beach, Freshwater Village is the perfect spot to grab a coffee, pastry or lunch, with a selection of boutique shops to peruse while you’re there.
