The western Don Heads beach (T 1130) is a cobble recurved spit which is attached at its western end to the base of the 50 m high heads, and curves to the southeast for 200 m into the river entrance. An earlier recurve has impounded a 2 ha wetland, which is encircled by the Don Heads Nature Trail. The narrow cobble ridge is fronted by 100-200 m wide intertidal rock flats, with the river channel hugging the eastern tip and rear of the spit (Fig. 4.247). The beach is accessible by car from the Don Heads Road.
