What travellers are saying
- ONomadeSingapore, Singapore58 contributionsThis is a beautiful sandy beach, worthy of a visit, rain or shine. In March, with a fair amount of rain still there - more than in previous years, I was told, the wet season seems to get longer now - it is perfect for a relaxing walk. If the sea is not very rough, there is an area protected from stingers where you can swim. The beach has lots of space and amazing views. Do check it out if you are near Port Douglas.Written 19 March 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
