Beach WA 272 lies 200 m to the west at the mouth of an elongate drowned valley. The 250 m long beach is skewed along the steep narrow embayment, with a small creek draining out at its eastern end. Waves break across a 300 m wide surf zone with a strong rip running along the base of the western rock boundary. A 4WD track reaches the end of the headland between the two beaches.
