Conical Harbour is a small sheltered rocky embayment located midway along the 8 km of rocky shoreline and reefs between Four Mile Beach and Hardwicke Bay. The small 200 m wide bay is named after rounded conical granite outcrops that extend inland from the shoreline, with the most prominent rocks adjacent to the small beach. Beach T 817 is located in the southern corner of the bay, at the mouth of a small creek. It is 60 m long and faces north into a 50 m wide arm of the bay with rock reefs and platforms to either side, which together with outer rocks and reefs lower waves to less than 0.5 m at the shore (Fig. 4.164). A vehicle track reaches the bay where there are three fishing shacks located amongst the rocks. The beach is used to launch small boats, with boats occasionally moored in the gutter off the beach. read more
