Blueys Beach, Pacific Palms NSW
Blueys Beach NSW sits in the beautiful Pacific Palms region just minutes from both Boomerang Beach and Elizabeth Beach. This relaxed coastal stretch runs for around 900 metres, framed by gently rising, tree-covered hills that give it a secluded, almost tucked-away feel.
The beach takes its unusual name from a local story about a cow called “Bluey” who wandered too close to the cliff edge and fell. It’s one of those small, quirky details that adds to the character of the area.
Despite its laid-back feel, Blueys Beach is a well-loved destination on the Mid North Coast, drawing visitors year-round. On clear days, the ocean shifts between deep blue and bright aqua tones — a signature look of this part of the coastline.
At both ends of the beach, rocky outcrops create natural rock pools, perfect for exploring at low tide. The surrounding hills and headlands give the impression that the beach is gently enclosed, almost protected by the landscape itself.
Blueys Beach is unpatrolled, so conditions can be unpredictable. Strong swells and rough surf are common, and care should always be taken when entering the water.
Located within Booti Booti National Park, the drive to Blueys Beach is part of the experience. From Forster, it’s around a 30-minute scenic trip, with plenty of opportunities to stop along the way and explore nearby beaches like Elizabeth Beach and Boomerang Beach.
