Cabarita Beach is a town in northeastern New South Wales which occupies a thin strip of beach-side land along the Coral Sea coast, east of Tweed Coast Road, in the Tweed Shire town of Bogangar. Locally, the names Cabarita Beach and Bogangar are interchangeable; either may be used when referring to the whole settlement,[2] with more people using the former. Hastings Point lies close to Cabarita Beach to the south and Casuarina to the north. At the 2016 census Cabarita Beach had a population of 103, Bogangar 3060.[3] Cabarita Beach is located within the Tweed Shire Local Government Authority.
The beach itself, as well as the nearby Norries Headland, are popular tourist attractions.[4] The surfing spot 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in Cabarita Beach was the original Cabarita Hotel, opened on 17 December 1960.[5] The original Cabarita Hotel has since been replaced by a modern, glass, chrome, and concrete structure.
