Malabar Beach

You can find two boat ramps towards the both ends of the beach, as well as a rock pool further south, just below Randwick Golf Club.

[6] Malabar Beach suffered issues with water pollution that affected health of the swimmers.

In 1992 a marine outfall started pumping the sewage 4.2 km out to the sea, and water quality improved dramatically.

Randwick Council lifeguards started patrolling the beach, and barbecue and playground were installed in Cromwell Park.

[7] The rocky headland on the left of the bay or the cliff, protect the beach from the waves so the water is very calm so swimming, snorkelling, scuba diving, kayaking and paddle boarding is easy to do at Malabar Beach although it gets deep suddenly.
