Great place to take a walk. There is a shelter, Toilet and plenty of seats to take in the views. There is a shallow bay where people were swimming. Easy walking path that all ages could do. The path will take you to the caravan park then cross the bridge and return back to carpark.

I imagine the time when the whale riders connected with the whales off the granite coastline. Very special place and very beautiful

We love walking with our kids here. It is very relaxing and easy for the kids to do. Pram friendly track and you might even get lucky and see the seals and dolphins swimming close by.

Many walks along this beautiful coastline.seals, whales, dolphins playing in the ocean; bodies of tiny seahorses washed up on the shores.

Great for short walks through native vegetation. There are some interesting info boards close to the Park's entrance about indigenous culture and language, and you can learn some birds and plant names. I'd suggest to take the loop walk out to the bluff. It offers pretty views of red Rock cliffs and the Southern sea.

Beautiful beach with gentle sloping sand (although quite a lot of seaweed when we went, April) and gentle waves even though you can hear the thunderous waves crashing from across the bay.
Very quiet and peaceful, only one other family on the beach while we were there and a few people walking their dogs.
We had a great day and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful day at the beach.

I was up pt elliot end, very good walk and views from recently upgraded lookout, the Middleton end of beach is a marine park, you might get lucky and spot whales in winter months, can get access from caravan park also

Beautiful walking beach if you want something a little less crowded, but still close to Port Elliot. Often good for swimming, but sometimes currents are strong. Popular fishing spot too.

Great beach for kids to go boogie boarding. Bit of an undertow but there is a sand bar just off the shore so it wasn't that deep. Kids loved it.
