North of the port is 15 km long beach, known from south to north as The Bushes, The Bamboos, Kemps Beach and Wauraltee Beach (472), which terminates at the prominent Renowdens Rocks, a tombolo backed reef. This beach is dominated in the south by 5 km of 400 to 600 m wide rock flats. These give way to 200 m wide sand flats, all fronted by continuous seagrass meadows. Ten to twenty metre high dunes back the entire beach, widening to 2 km in the north, and dominated by largely stable parabolic dunes. A rough vehicle tracks runs along the back of the dunes with a mixture of vehicle and 4WD tracks both along and through the dunes to the beach.
