Accessed through a tunnel of a rockwall at the north end of Seaside Creek Beach during low tide. Very remote and perfect for exploring, but don’t get caught by the tide before you head back through!

A sandy strip of beach that is very popular for surf fishing rather than swimming or sunbathing. There’s lots of driftwood around and it’s a nice beach stroll. Also a nice spot to enter the water on a paddleboard, boat or kayak.
