This section of the coast comes with stunning rock formations and caves that are best explored by staying at the beach and walking across the rocks. You will need to keep a careful eye on the tide, not just for an easy way in, but also to make it back in time. There are stairs at the end of the last bay that create an emergency exit. A bit of scrambling is however required to make it up there. Other than that it is a great section that turns any beach walk into a little adventure.
