South of Clairview the shoreline continues to decrease in wave energy, while increasing in tide range, as it enters the more protected shores of Broad Sound. The shoreline is a mixture of some higher ground, as outliers of the Connors Range form a few headlands including Clairview Bluff and North Red Bluff, with low-lying beaches and tidal flats in between. The highway runs a few kilometres inland and the coast is backed by grazing land and tidal flats, with no recognised vehicle access to the coast south of Clairview Bluff. Clairview Bluff is a low, vegetated headland surrounded by rock flats and then extensive sand flats. On the south side of the bluff the shoreline trends south-west in two 1 km long arcs toward the mouth of Clairview Creek. The beach (1211) consists of a 30 m wide, moderate gradient high tide beach fronted by 600 m wide, ridged tidal flats in the north that narrow to 50 m in the south, as the creek channel truncates the edge of the flats. The entire beach is backed by a low, narrow foredune, then vegetated slopes that gradually rise to 20 to 40 m. There is a 4WD track out to the bluff. read more
