Green Hill is a 50 m high hill that is surrounded by a number of beaches. Between the hill and the coast is a relatively new residential development containing about 100 housing sites. There is an 11 km long, sealed (then gravel) road from Ibibie on the highway to the settlement. This road provides access to five of the six beaches in this area.
Beaches 1181, 1182 and 1183 are three near-continuous beaches that fringe the rocky shore at the base of Green Hill. All three are accessible by vehicle or on foot from the Green Hill settlement. Beach 1181 is 300 m long, faces north-east and is bordered by sand-covered rocks to the north and a prominent rock flat to the south. Beach 1182 lies on the south side of these rocks and is 400 m long, faces more easterly and is also bordered by extensive intertidal rock flats. Beach 1183 lies at the foot of the settlement and runs from the northern rock flats to the mouth of a tidal creek that flows across the beach.
