    Hiking

    The long, sandy beach at Florencia Bay is a popular surfing spot. Access by vehicle is via a narrow cul-de-sac off Wick Road to the south. Parking is limited; RVs are not permitted.
    Until 1930, the beach was known as Wreck Bay. In January 1861, the two-masted ship Florencia sank off the bay.
