    Tips

    July 23, 2020

    Two paths cross Middle Head, one along the crest, the other close to the south edge. The band of wave-cut rocks to the south, up to 400 feet wide at low tide, includes the best eroded formations on the island, a great array of weathered pinnacles, large and small, separated by narrow crevices and some wider channels, coloured various shades of bluish-grey, and black, contrasting with the whitewater waves and the white foam.
