A true local icon, The Farm — officially known as Killalea Beach — captures the essence of Shellharbour’s laid-back surf culture. Just a short drive from Shellharbour Holiday Village, this pristine beach is part of the Killalea Regional Park, a National Surfing Reserve recognised for its natural beauty and consistent waves.
Whether you’re a seasoned surfer or a beginner, The Farm delivers waves year-round and a welcoming beach vibe. The long sandy stretch is perfect for a morning surf, a barefoot walk, or simply sitting back to watch locals ride the rolling sets.
Surrounding the beach are grassy headlands, shady picnic spots, and walking trails that offer stunning views of the coast. The Killalea Lagoon Trail winds through native vegetation, providing a peaceful contrast to the energy of the surf below.
Families will find plenty of open space for picnics and games, and on calmer days, the southern end of the beach is great for paddling or bodyboarding. The nearby Killalea Campgrounds Café serves coffee, snacks, and ice cream — ideal after a salty adventure.
Local tip: Sunrise and sunset at The Farm are simply spectacular. Bring your camera — or just your sense of calm.
