Black Nose Point is a 20 m high basalt headland that forms the northern border of a 400 m long, east facing beach that is partially protected by Point Danger. A vehicle track leads down the backing bluffs and runs the length of the beach to a car park at the southern end. The beach is composed of basalt cobble and boulders, with a wide, shallow sand bar exposed at low tide, particularly to the south. Waves average about 1 m.
