Attractions
The most well-known attraction in the suburb is the beach at Maslin Beach. The beach is the site of a cliff-lined recreation reserve stretching from Maslin Beach town in the north to Blanche Point in the south.
In 1975, the southern half of the beach was declared Australia's first official nude beach. The beach is almost 3km long so the area reserved for nude bathing is away from other beach users.
The Maslin Beach Nude Olympics are held annually, consisting of informal competitions such as three-legged races and the judging of "the best bum".
There are three parks in Maslin Beach. One is at the top of the stairs, one is on Beachway Avenue and one is on Parkway Avenue located next to the town hall.
Development
The development of Maslin Beach and adjacent lands for prospective tourism and recreational facilities has been a subject of controversy. In 2014, the Onkaparinga Council rejected the prospect of rezoning lands for the potential development of a marina following objections from residents.
Transport
Maslin Beach is serviced by Main South Road, connecting the suburb to both Adelaide CBD and the Fleurieu Peninsula. Public transport is run by Adelaide Metro.
