The Beaury Creek, a perennial stream of the Clarence River catchment, is located in the Northern Rivers region of New South Wales, Australia.
Beaury Creek rises on the southern slopes of the McPherson Range below Bald Knob, about 6.5 kilometres (4.0 mi) west by north of Woodenbong. The river flows generally south southwest, joined by one minor tributary before reaching its confluence with the Tooloom Creek near Tooloom. The river descends 120 metres (390 ft) over its 20 kilometres (12 mi) course.[2]
