One Mile Beach in Forster is a beautiful location with a golf course, parking, picnic areas, and stunning surroundings. It has been a popular spot for locals and visitors since the 1970s, which led to the founding of our surf club. The beach is frequently used for swimming and surfing, but we advise caution due to prominent rips and side currents. It is essential to swim between the flags or stay close to the shore for your safety.
