Eagle Nest Reef is a sandstone reef backed by 30 to 40 m high, red bluffs. Between the rock platform, reefs and the bluffs are two narrow beaches. On the north side, the beach is 150 m long, backed by a cobble storm beach at the base of the bluff and fronted by deep water and a permanent rip against the reefs. The south beach is hemmed in between two headlands and platforms. It has a single permanent rip channel straight off the beach. Both beaches are only accessible around the rocks at low tide. A coastal walking track begins at the end of Boundary Road, just north of the northern Eagle Nest Beach, and follows the bluffs for 4 km to Fairhaven Surf Life Saving Club. read more
