Dimmicks and Pearse’s Beaches are four small pocket beaches, each consisting of a steep, sandy, high tide beach. They are backed by 10 to 20 m high, dune covered calcarenite bluffs, and are fronted by near continuous rock and reef flats. The beaches are awash at high tide, in the lee of reef-dominated surf, and fronted by exposed rock flats at low tide.
All four beaches can be reached along the coastal walk, and from a track across the dunes from the end of Pearse’s Road.
Swimming
You can only bathe on these beaches at mid to high tide, however be very careful of the rocks and reef on and off the beach.
Surfing
There are no rideable waves at these beaches, however the offshore reefs can provide some waves at high tide. The breaks go by the names of the streets used to access the coast, with the break off Dimmicks called Tibir Street.
Fishing
This section is dominated by rock platforms and reefs, however you need to find the deeper gutters in the rocks.
General
These beaches are best suited for viewing from the coastal track, rather than bathing.
