A 20-minute walk along Marine Parade, a Victorian promenade, connects North Bay to South Bay. For those who prefer not to walk, open-top buses provide regular service between the two bays during the summer season.
Colorful beach huts are located behind the esplanade and can be rented for a day or for longer durations. North Bay Beach has been awarded Blue Flag status.
