Overview
Jibbon Beach sits below Jibbon Head at the northern tip of the Bundeena peninsula. Deeper water close to shore makes it popular with boaters; Jibbon Lagoon lies behind the dunes.
There are no swimmer facilities on the beach — park in Bundeena village at the western end. The Jibbon Head loop passes Aboriginal engravings and lookouts — one of the best short cultural walks in the park.
