Fishery Bay (829) is a slightly curving, southeast facing 950 m long low gradient sand beach and bar, which is moderately sheltered by prominent 20 to 40 m high headlands and its orientation, resulting in waves averaging about 1 m (Fig. 4.137). There are usually two beach rips along the beach, with permanent rips against the headlands during periods of higher waves. There is a car park in lee of the beach which is backed by a foredune, then older scarped calcarenite bluffs. The bay was the site of a 19th century whaling station and some of the remains are still visible on the eastern rocks. read more
