About

Thompsons Beach is a small, sheltered cove on the Ballito coastline, backed by low, rugged cliffs and home to a tidal pool that draws families at low tide. It's one of the area's dog-friendly beaches, with owners regularly walking pets along the sand, though the swimming area and tidal pool are best avoided with a dog in tow. The setting is quieter than Ballito's main beaches.
