The main beach (406) is 4 km long, it initially faces north and receives waves less than 0.5 m, making the southern half ideal for both boat launching and moorings. The southern beach is composed of fine sand, which with the low waves produces a flat, firm beach, usually partly covered in seagrass. Wave height slowly increases up the bay, reaching about 1 m at the sandy foreland in lee of Middle Island.
