Dudgeon Point is a low bedrock point, the first rock south of Slade Point 20 km to the north. The point and its western extension form part of the southern shore of Sandringham Bay, a 2 to 3 km wide, shallow, sand-filled, low energy bay, with mangrove-covered tidal flats dominating its inner reaches. Three kilometres south-west of Dudgeon Point the mangroves give way sufficiently for a sandy beach to form the shoreline, with three beaches between there and the point. The point and backing land are part of a cattle station and the land has largely been cleared for grazing. Beach 1127 lies on the east side of the low rock flats and is a curving, 1.1 km long, north-west facing, high tide sandy beach fronted by 100 to 200 m wide tidal flats, then the deeper tidal channel. It is bordered by 200 m wide rock flats, with scattered mangroves on the southern rock flats. The station homestead lies on cleared land just behind the beach. read more
