Plan around this beach

The beach, from above.

Landmarks selected by the local curator. Check the access notes for arrival instructions.

Parking area

The parking area is visible above the beach, on the right of this photograph. The exact entrance pin and accessible route still need an on-site check.

Lookout area

The paved lookout is visible on the right-hand edge of the bay. Treat this as a photo landmark, not a marked route to the sand.

Beach & shoreline

The broad sandy stretch is visible across the centre of the bay. Water depth, currents and entry conditions cannot be confirmed from this photograph.

Trees behind the beach

Trees are visible behind the sand. Shade changes through the day; this is not a guarantee of available or suitable shade.
