On the eastern side of the 100 m wide headland is 3.3 km long beach NT 702. This is the highest energy beach in the bay and during strong onshore wind and wave conditions receives sufficient wave energy to form rips, which cut across the attached bar approximately every 100 m. The beach is backed by a 300-400 m wide series of beach-foredune ridges, which are cut by a small creek toward the eastern end. The beach terminates as rock reefs, and bluffs dominate the shore, which turns and trends north for 2 km to Worrmi Point.
Beach Length: 3.3km
