Thistle Cove

Highlight • Beach

The cove is part of the national park. A bit smaller than the more famous Lucky Beach, but much more private. Although of course it depends on the season and the Australian vacation. As with all bays in the NP, you will find clear water and white sand.
Definitely a recommendation.

Little Hellfire Bay

Highlight • Beach

Little Hellfire Bay Beach is a small, sheltered beach tucked between rounded granite headlands and is a quieter, more secluded alternative to the larger nearby bays. The calm, shallow waters and picturesque setting make it a peaceful spot to pause along the coastal trail or enjoy a swim on a warm day.

November 15, 2023,Thistle cove- Hellfire bay return

Unfortunately I didn't start record at the start so start A should be where finish B is. Therefore the walk is about 1 km longer than recorded. Spectacular walk though wild flowers Dolphins and snakes
