Beaches T 918, 919 and 920 are three adjoining beaches that extend north of Black Rocks and are each separated by low rocky outcrops or small points. Beach T 918 commences on the northern side of the low 50 m wide north Black Rocks and trends north for 300 m to the next irregular 50 m wide, 6 m high rock outcrop (Fig. 4.182). The Black Rocks reefs extend seaward of the southern end and these and the northern rocks form a reef-controlled rip that drains the inner surf zone, flowing out past the north rocks, with the outer bar beyond. Beach T 919 continues for another 200 m up to the next irregular 10 m high rocky 100 m wide vegetated outcrop. The two outcrops converge towards the centre, with a small reef off the centre of the beach. Waves however remain high with the reef controlling the inner surf, which is drained by a solitary rip while the outer bar continues seaward. An access track follows a relatively straight 2 km long boundary to reach the shore at the point. Beach T 920 extends due north of the point for 400 m to a small rock outcrop. It tends to have a large rip against the southern point, and a second rip towards the northern rocks. All three beaches are backed by 1 km wide transgressive dunes in the south, narrowing along beach T 920 towards the mouth of Wells Creek.
