Mona Vale

Mona Vale is a laid-back Northern Beaches suburb with a beautiful one-kilometre stretch of golden sand fronting the Pacific Ocean. The beach is split by a broad rock platform that gives the area its distinctive look, and there’s a lively surf culture with beach breaks suitable for swimmers and surfers alike.

The rock platform at the northern end creates a natural division between the main beach and the smaller sheltered cove known as The Basin, where waves are softer and families often gather. Right beside the rock platform you’ll find the iconic ocean-fed pool and Rockpool area — perfect for kids and calm swims on quieter days.

Beyond the sand and surf, Mona Vale has a friendly village feel with cafés, shops and picnic areas lining Surfview Road and Apex Park. The Playground, picnic shelters and scenic viewing platforms make it ideal for a relaxed day by the water, while the surf club offers facilities like showers and toilets for visitors. The combination of uncrowded beach breaks, family-friendly rockpools and classic Northern Beaches charm make Mona Vale a favourite coastal stop.
