Werrong Beach is an officially designated clothing-optional beach located near the far southern end of Royal National Park, which is Australia's oldest national park. The beach is about 60 kilometers south of the center of the metropolis of Sydney and about 30 kilometers north of the center of the much smaller city of Wollongong. Werrong Beach is a bit north of Otford and Stanwell Park, which are far northern suburbs of Wollongong. Because it requires some effort to reach, the beach is not on the mainstream tourist beat. The hike down is somewhat taxing, and the return trip is even more tiring, so you need to be reasonably fit. Once you are there, the entire beach is clothing optional, and it tends to be uncrowded due to the length and difficulty of the hike. Werrong is a beautiful crescent that stretches a little more than 200 meters. The setting is lush and dramatic. There are no facilities here. You should pack lightly considering the climb, but be sure to bring plenty of water.
