A hidden gem for little ones, the inlet known as “Little Lake” by the locals is the perfect place for a family swim on a hot day! Little Lake is tucked away in residential Warilla. There is a small grassed area with play equipment, but the real star is the clear shallow waters that the kids will be drawn to. This spot can be found if you venture along the cycle path that passes through Shellharbour, Warilla, Mount Warrigal and Oak Flats. It sits between Shellharbour and Warilla Beach. The inlet is tidal so plan your visit to ensure the water depth is appropriate!
