The beach sits at the far end of the inlet and is about 60 metres long and 10 wide: coarse sand with plenty of rocky patches. If sand is not your thing, you can swim from the boat slipways.

The seabed is sandy, but there are plenty of stones and sudden changes in depth, so go into the water carefully.
