Between Liverpool Creek and Muff Creek, 11 km to the south, are three lower energy beaches dominated by the presence of extensive fringing coral reefs and three creek mouths. Only the central Kurrimine Beach is accessible via the Murdering Point Road. Kurrimine has a beachfront location and offers a range of caravan parks, a resort and limited shopping and tourist facilities, as well as a concrete beach boat ramp. There is no road access to the northern Murdering Point Beach, nor to the southern Maria Creek Beach although there is a boat ramp located in Muff Creek, which forms the southern boundary of the beach. Murdering Point Beach (774) is 7 km long, faces east and extends from the reef-protected, though dynamic, mouth of Liverpool Creek, south for 1 km to a small, reef-formed, cuspate foreland, then essentially due south to Murdering Point. The point itself is a low, sandy, substantial, cuspate foreland formed in lee of the Sisters Islands and the extensive King Reef complex, that surrounds the point and extends up to 5 km offshore. As a result of the reef, the beach is calm at low tide and fronted by extensive sand and reef flats, with only low waves reaching the steep beach at high tide. The shoreline, however, remains dynamic and large sections are being eroded back into tall melaleuca trees. The northern half of the beach is part of Kurrimine National Park. read more
