Details

Start with a stroll to Scenic Estate to have morning tea overlooking Churchill Island Marine National Park. Walk back to Forest Caves carpark and across the high sand dunes capturing the beautiful views across the narrowest point on the Island (850m wide) with the still bay on one side and the ferocious ocean on the other.     

Stroll along the long golden beach to the rugged red rock outcrop to explore the caves at the very low tide of 0.2 – 0.3m. Finish the walk with a gentle wander around Surf Beach (East), where much of the area still feels frozen in time, capturing the charm and character of a quiet coastal hamlet just as it was 60 years ago.
