Chesterman Beach is a sandy laidback spot famous as the place to come to learn how to surf. The waves are consistent and there are days when they are just perfect for the pros. The after-surf activities include bonfires, cook-outs, long walks in the shallows, and much more. Rosie Bay, just south of Chesterman South, has rock caves, tidal pools, and a great surf wave when the conditions are right. The beach is large and there is room for everyone, whether you like to surf, kite-surf, wind-surf, or kayak. A great variety of birds lives on the beach all year long, putting on a show for birdwatchers and nature photographers.
