A notable feature of the beach is the Fingal Spit, a sand bank that leads to Shark Island, offering a picturesque walk for visitors. Amenities at Fingal Beach include a small shaded park for young children and toilets, although the cleanliness of the public bathrooms has been noted as an area for improvement. There is also a kiosk, which operates flexible hours, and a coffee shop located near the beachfront caravan park. Parking is readily available near the beach, with street parking options near the Fingal Surf Life Saving building. From the parking area, it is a short walk to the beach entrance.
