Gorgeous national park and one of the most easily accessed walk ways into the park itself. Recommend coming here early in the morning for the sunrise and to avoid the crowds. Beware the other holiday makers that will crowd the car park up. The beaches are gorgeous, if a little flat, so they're perfect for families or individuals who aren't interested in pushing themselves too hard. No flag or lifesavers so it's best to play it safe

The coastal walk was easily the highlight. The views are much better than I thought. Even spotted dolphins out in the water which I can say made the kid's day even better.

Best walk but do it early, the further you go the less tourists.. Current works need a detour but Parks management do a fantastic maintenance regime..
