Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

What travellers are saying
- James M6 contributionsThis lake is great to kick back and relax. Warm water in the summer and pleasantly cool in the winter. Great spot to have a BBQ or picnic with family and friends.Written 15 December 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Marty ..Cebu City, Philippines3,695 contributionsThe beautiful Lennox Head Beach , is a part of the long , sandy Seven Mile Beach
All a long this extended New South Wales coastal beach , is good for surfing
It’s a good walk following the beach
You get panoramic views of Lennox Head Beach / Seven Mile Beach from Lennox Point Headland , at Pat Morton LookoutWritten 5 May 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Benches are located along the route for admiring the ocean and beaches. The final climb up stairs to the lookout is a bit daunting and certainly not for the mobility challenged but the rest of the walk is well graded and there is the coffee or breakfast back on town to energise you. Highly recommended.Written 8 February 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Mandy CoombsNorth Petherton, UK1,251 contributionsLovely look out spot for viewing lots of whales in the bay. You have to pay to park & it’s worth parking a bit further down than at the lighthouse as it was very busy and no where to turn, so worth walking for a few minutes to the lighthouse viewpoint. Take your binoculars as it’s likely you will see whales if it’s the right time of year.Written 14 October 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Marty ..Cebu City, Philippines3,695 contributionsThe panoramic views from Iron Peg , overlooking both sections of Boulder Beach
The to small car park , at Iron Peg , is off Rocky Point RoadWritten 19 July 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews. - Col RLennox Head, Australia157 contributionsOver the years, while our kids were small, especially, this has been a wondrous place for them to play and for adults to commune together and relax. Being locals, we've been here hundreds of times over past couple of decades. Always a good place to hang.
The Boat Channel is not only a formed waterway, giving boats access to local fishing grounds, but also makes a semi protected swimming pool at low tides. While not as safe as the patrolled beach at the surf club, this is as good or better when the surf club or paid lifeguards do not have patrols on duty (basically, weekdays out of school holidays and weekends in the cooler months).
The beach at the Boat Channel is quiet and uncrowded. Without kids it's a great place to lie down on a towel and read a book, and otherwise just unwind and be with nature. There are often dolphins out there, and we have sometimes seen stingrays flipping over the waves offshore. Of course, whales can also be seen in season, although easier to spot from higher ground, like from the lookout above the Point.
When the conditions are right, this can also be a nice place to surf. The reef helps to build wave height. We've had many enjoyable times with mates and kids surfing this break. Just watch out for low tide. Several fin repairs remind me to be careful paddling, or surfing back in at the end of a session.
A short walk takes you to many rock pools (at low tide) which are great for the kids to explore. And naturally, any beach is a sand castle in the making.
Take the time to enjoy this spot - drive down Rutherford Street and climb the small sand ridge to the beach. It's well hidden, but worth a visit.Written 5 December 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Along Seven Mile Beach , there are plenty of open beach for surfing .. & public park land - which is good for picnicking & walks
Generally only a small section of the beach is patrolled by the volunteers of Lennox Head-Alstonville Surf Life Saving Club .. this area between the flags is the seaside of Lake Ainsworth
