Maloneys Beach is a sheltered, family-friendly beach located within the Eurobodalla Shire on the New South Wales South Coast, near Batemans Bay. It is characterized by a wide grassy reserve with amenities and is noted for its protection from northeasterly winds, resulting in generally calm waters and smaller swells compared to more exposed ocean beaches. The western end features a protected cove and a string of small rock pools along colourful rock ledges. The beach's low-energy environment and sandy substrate create the ideal conditions for productive beach gutters, making it a popular destination for shore-based anglers.
