The point itself is tied to the mainland by a 6.5 km long, southwest facing beach (1307). The beach maintains a high energy surf zone for 4 km, before decreasing in energy in lee of the western headland, with sandflats in front of the far western, northeast facing end of the beach. The Davenport Creek road terminates at the low energy end of the beach, while active dunes extend on average 1 km in from the main beach, in places moving over the backing mangroves of Davenport Creek (Fig. 4.180).
