Beach NSW 578 is located on the southern side of the point and commences as patches of sand amongst the rocks and boulders, where the remains of the SS Monaro lie, a steamship wrecked in 1879. The beach then continues as a continuous 200 m long southeast-facing sand beach, to the low southern rocks. It is well exposed to southerly waves, which average 1.5 m and maintain permanent rips against the rocks at each end. It is backed by a foredune then vegetated bluffs rising to 20 m.
