Beach T 1171 commences 50 m to the east and is a slightly curving 150 m long high tide cobble beach, with a central sandy section. It has a few rock outcrops along the beach and scattered reefs extending off either end. It is backed by slopes rising more gradually to 50 m, with a walking track following a small valley to the centre of the beach. Beach T 1172 commences at a rock-tied inflection in the shore and continues to the northeast for another 150 m as a relatively straight high tide sand and cobble beach, fronted by shallow intertidal rock flats. Windred Creek drains across the centre of the beach and is the main access point for hikers.
