Tucked within Mimosa Rocks National Park on the Sapphire Coast, Murrah Beach pairs a sweeping ocean beach with the calm, shallow waters of Murrah Lagoon. The lagoon's protected sandy bottom makes it an ideal spot for a tranquil snorkel, while the adjacent surf beach offers a more energetic swell. The surrounding bushland backdrop and absence of crowds give this spot a wild, secluded feel — just you, the tea-coloured lagoon, and the gentle rhythm of the South Coast.
