An early settler found what he thought was coal in a cave on the banks of the Inlet and, as a result of his find, several attempts have been made to mine coal there.  Unfortunately the deposits proved to be of too low a quality for mining to be economically viable.

The turning to the beach is approximately 1 km east of town along South Coast Highway. The beach is below the caravan park.

The Boat Club is situated here and there is a good ramp for launching your boat.

Coalmine Beach is great for family picnics.  It is sheltered, being a cove on the Inlet, and the water is very shallow, warm and generally quite calm.

School swimming lessons are held here because it is so safe, so you can be sure that your children will be able to play safely in the water at Coalmine Beach.
