Surfing is particularly good at the reefs, which are located at both ends of the beach. When the swells are up, surfers can expect terrific waves. Sunliners is the right hand located on the southern reef while the northern right-hander is also very good.

Fishing is another popular activity in Flynns Beach. During high tide, one can enjoy deep water fishing. However, the reefs and rocks on either end of the beach are also abundant with fish.
