Expect cool water year-round
Water temperatures hover around 20 degrees Celsius, so bring thermal protection if you plan to swim.
Shallow, calm water for children
The sheltered cove has minimal waves, shallow areas, and calm conditions, plus rocks where children can explore for crabs.
Arrive early in summer months
The small beach fills quickly during June, July, and August, with parking becoming scarce by late morning.
Check the tide before going
At high tide, sand almost disappears, so plan your visit for low tide to have adequate beach space.
Watch for weever fish in summer
One reviewer warns of potential weever fish bites, a hazard more common during warmer months.
