Beach FI 25 is a 50 m long pocket of southwest-facing sand wedged in between sloping granite rocks on the western side of the point. The beach receives low wind waves, but is sufficiently exposed to the prevailing westerly winds for some minor dune transgression to have blown sand up over the backing 15 m high rocky slopes. The beach has a 20 m wide high tide swash zone, with central rock outcrops and 50 m wide sand flats, with dense seagrass beyond. It can only be accessed on foot around the rocks at low tide.
Beach Length: 0.05km
