If you have a 4WD and are up for a bit of an adventure, you can drive along the spectacular Lighthouse Beach. It’s 2km long, with great views of the lighthouse in one direction and the headland in the other. If you don’t have a 4WD, you can head to the viewing platform at the beach to watch the action from above.
