Council approved the Curl Curl Beach Landscape Masterplan in 2014 to enhance Flora and Richie Roberts Reserve behind Curl Curl Beach. The project aimed to create a safe, natural space for the community.

A key aspect of the Landscape Masterplan project was to provide accessible connections around South Curl Curl Swim Club.

This project plans to build an accessible pathway from South Curl Curl Beach to the rear and first level of the swim club, continuing on to Fisherman’s Walk, to improve connectivity in the area. This new connection will improve pedestrian safety by removing the shared zone in the upper carpark.

The community was invited to review a landscape plan from 2 August to 1 September 2024. Feedback showed strong support for pathway upgrades, particularly regarding accessibility and safety. Balancing these improvements with environmental preservation was a key concern.

Based on community input, the plan was revised. Notable changes include removing previously proposed switchbacks and steps behind South Curl Curl Swim Club, and implementing straighter pathway alignments. These modifications aim to enhance accessibility while addressing community preferences.

You can view the revised design below and read more on the outcomes of engagement in the Community Engagement Report.
