Iron Peg

"Iron Peg: Where the unbreakable spirit of the ocean meets the unwavering strength of the shore."

If you're seeking a serene place to relax and savor the beach, this is the perfect spot. We went for rock fishing, and it's essential to bring a life jacket. Exercise caution as the rocks can be slippery, and the waves are quite strong.
We were also lucky to witness dolphins and whales playing. Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience.

I’d give it 6 stars if I could, it’s my absolute favorite place in the Ballina to Byron region. The beauty of the location is stunning, offering beautiful coastal walk trails, fishing and surfing. There is protection from most winds except for easterlies in the various nooks and crannies close by, dotted by rock pools, pebbles and sand. Climb to either of the adjacent nearby headlands for unparalleled views of ocean and whales etc. It is the happy place of many locals and a go to for a quick jump off the rocks into the sea for a swim. It is raw and iconic to this area.

Loved this little beach. So many interesting rocks. Best to go at low tide, if you have little kids so they can play in the rock pools

Beautiful spot with easy walk to headland and rock pools for kids to explore.

This is a great walk from Ballina to Lennox. Beautiful view

Great place to explore rock pools and look back to Boulder Beach. Great views

Great spot for whale watching and some good walking tracks. The whole area is stunning

Beautiful View. Perfect for enjoying sunset hues.

Great place to sit and watch.

Lovely spit to relax and catch a great view of the ocean. Popular for fishing, surfing and walking. Not a swimming area and no amenities.

Watch the sunrise from this quaint little vantage point. Whale season and you get a front row seat. Winter, summer or fall no time is a bad time. It really is a beautiful spot. You can also fish off the rocks and maybe pull in a decent size Jewy. You can even snorkel around the rocks and enjoy the marine life. I personally love watching the surfers do their thang🤙🏽🏄‍♂

Stop for a quick break and watching dolphins on the water

Wow, great views, good rocks and rockpools to explore and stones to fossick if you like that sort of thing.

Overcast with wild waves, very nice!

Awesome morning wandering the beach and taking in the sunrise.

Saw a few Humpback whales travelling North. Good coastal walk - but plan your crossings of the rock-strewn beach!

Amazing rock formations and rock pools. Around the other side is popular with surfers.

Wow. You have to go here. Natural!

Amazing view. Don’t forget to keeping walking after the fence with locks because the view it is more beautiful yet.

Nice place to visit. Good surf of the north side of the point. Very dangerous place to fish when the seas are large.
