We will stop for a refreshments and a cuppa tea (some Anzac biscuit delights) and a swim if you wish. If it s low tide, we will head to the bay s eastern end to see remains of the PS Maitland, tragically wrecked in 1898.

This is what Simone from our previous hike had to say:

Stunning! A short walk that was so relaxing down at the bay. We stopped for a swim at the beach and took off our shoes to stroll. The water was pristine! Could have stayed here for hours! Loved the morning tea and the ladies. I m inspired now to walk the whole coastal track in Bouddi National Park .
