Penrith Beach has welcomed visitors to its sandy shore since opening in December 2023.

Penrith Beach is open during the warmer months of the year, offering a cool place to take a dip and enjoy the outdoors, surrounded by the picturesque setting of the Blue Mountains.

Our latest season has now drawn to a close at Penrith Beach and saw a great variety of free family friendly activities on offer including:

  • outdoor cinema
  • Wildlife Wednesdays presented by Sydney Zoo
  • fitness bootcamps
  • junior lifesaving
  • water safety education sessions
  • volleyball competition
  • skin cancer health checks.

Penrith Beach is part of the NSW Government’s Places to Swim program, creating great places for people to enjoy rivers, lakes, dams and other inland waterways.

Places to Swim is more than just swimming, it is also about improving access for recreational activities around our waterways, such as kayaking, paddle boarding or walking by the water.
