Glenrock Beach, often referred to as Burwood Beach, is located in the Merewether Heights of Newcastle, New South Wales. It extends southwest from the southern Merewether rocks to the 75-meter-high Little Redhead Point. The beach is backed by two valleys and offers scenic views with exposed rocks at times. It is fully exposed to southerly waves and features multiple beach rips, which make it popular for those seeking a more adventurous coastal experience.
Glenrock is part of the Glenrock State Conservation Area, which offers a mix of coastal rainforest, waterfalls, and scenic mountain biking trails. This makes it an ideal destination for nature lovers and adventure seekers alike.
The area protects ancient Aboriginal sites and is home to a variety of wildlife, including bandicoots and gliders. However, pets are not allowed to ensure the native animals and plants are protected.
