Nora Creina is a small settlement of about 60 shacks and holiday houses, with the only facilities being a phone and occasionally open store. The attractive bay contains a semi-circular beach bounded by prominent 20 m high calcarenite headlands and reefs. The headlands are remnant of the Robe Range, that elsewhere has been eroded down to reefs (Fig. 4.17). The reefs and 500 m wide bay entrance lower waves at the shore to less than 0.5 m, which with the fine white sand maintain a firm low gradient beach and shallow bar (94). The beach is used as a car park and launching ramp, though vehicles are not permitted south of the access track. A few fishing boats are usually at anchor in the southern corner of the bay. The bay is named after the brigantine Nora Creina that struck a reef off the bay in 1858. read more
