Between Rocky Creek beach and the oyster fence beach is a 12 km long section of low energy shoreline, that is backed by slowly rising slopes of the Normanby Range and fronted by tidal flats averaging 1 to 2 km wide. Where the slopes reach the shore they form a series of shallow embayments and low headlands that, together with three tidal creeks, divide the shoreline into seven beaches all linked by continuous tidal flats. A vehicle track runs behind the shore, 2 to 3 km inland, reaching the coast at Mooly Creek and east of Little Creek. Otherwise there is no development, apart from the abandoned Huttonvale outstation, located 2 km south of Mooly Creek mouth. Beaches 1293, 1294 and 1295 are three low, arcuate, north-east facing beaches that extend for 5 km from the eastern side of Mooly Creek beach to the broad Little Creek mouth. Beach 1294 is 1.8 km long, lies between two low headlands and is backed by slowly rising ground, apart from a small creek and backing salt flat in the middle. read more
