  • Beaches in this park are not patrolled, and can sometimes have strong rips and currents.

Located right next to Tyagarah Nature Reserve, this charming, quiet picnic spot, complete with tables, is a great place to chill out and grab a bite, or recline with a long, lazy picnic between swims at the beautiful beach just across the way.

Besides the gorgeous stretch of protected coastline here, there are also some excellent tracks behind the dunes, which are great for bushwalking and birdwatching. Coastal banksia can be found along the tracks and behind the dunes, as well as midgen berry, with its white flowers and purple spotted berries, which are much-loved by the local birds.
