Hastings Point lies close to Cabarita Beach to the south and Casuarina to the north.

The beach itself, as well as the adjacent Norries Headland, are popular tourist attractions.[3] The surf break to the north of the headland is also very popular.

The first major development in Cabarita Beach was the original Cabarita Hotel, opened on 17 December 1960.[4] That building has since been replaced by a modern glass, chrome and concrete structure.


History


Cabarita is an Aboriginal word, whose term means by the water. David Anderson, a private soldier or the NSW Corps was granted land in the area in 1795. The area around Cabarita Point was reserved in 1856 for public recreational outdoor activities.

Since that time, Cabarita Beach has remained a seaside town for its tranquil beach lifestyle.
