You know those "beach scenes" in the midday movies or soap tv shows? After visiting Pt Willunga…read morebeach I am now convinced they have all been filmed here. I can't help but pontificate about the ridiculous perfection that SA is lucky enough to have on it's south western coastline. Protected by rugged, undulating cliff faces a long and wide golden sandy beach gives way to quite large waves perfect for surfing and fishing but shallow enough at the beginning to allow kids and dogs plenty of naked frolicking on the shoreline. Put simply, this is the bestest beach in SA. There are 2 toilets near the car park and a restaurant that overlooks the beach (Star of Greece). I didn't notice a canteen whilst here but that may have been further along down south. It is dog leash free, but not too crowded that you feel like you are going to be mauled by an over-excited pup dashing along the sand. The sunrise and sunset reflect off the cliffs to create a gorgeous yellow hue in the warmer months and it's not full of bogans, tourists or anyone really, meaning you can stroll along this too good to be true setting for every romance novel in peace.

This is my favourite beach. I'm not one for flash, busy beaches like Bondi or even Glenelg. I love…read morethe quieter beaches where you can do your own thing without having masses of people everywhere. The beach has a shallow section due to a bit of a sandbar, then in drops off, but this makes it great for families. The little kids can play in the shallows while the big ones can body surf the waves. And we can't forget the most photographed ruins in SA, the old jetty pillions. Head down around sunset and you'll see a mass of photographers all trying to get the perfect shot! Get on down, but keep it secret, can have everyone knowing about this gem ;)

This beach is close to where I live so I go a fair bit. Aldinga Beach allows people to drive along…read morethe beach which is totally fine and useful but it get can busy real quick. Everyone tries to park right near the ramp but if you just go a couple meters up there us plenty of room. Waves can get quite big sometimes, every now and then people say they see seals. Water also isn't always clear

It only gets 3 stars because it has water, a toilet block, shelter and a BBQ. Which is all great…read more Plus it is right on the beachfront but with an elevated view. Plus there is heaps of parking off the road. Wow, I'm making it sound better now. But seriously check out the photo's. The playground is literally pretty much a slide and a swing or two. There's no shade anywhere! Plus it looks NOTHING AT ALL like the artist's impression (which I had to take a pic of as well). However it is a great big space. You could play plenty of games on the area easily and without annoying others. It would be nice if you went to the beach for the day and having BBQ's and toilets an water nearby it would make for a great package deal on a day out. But on it's own, solely as a park and reserve space, it only gets 3 stars. The package would bring it to 4 stars.

As you can see it has changed a lot since last review! A wonderful day to see it but it has a great…read morekids playground and lots of space to kick a footy. The view is spectacular too.
