New Chums Beach
10 Daisy

This beach is truly stunning, one of the most beautiful I've ever seen! The path to get there is easy to locate and not too difficult to navigate. However, if you decide to climb up to the lookout, be aware that it's quite steep and may not be suitable for everyone. But if you do make it up there, the view is incredibly rewarding! From the top, we were lucky enough to spot some hammerhead sharks swimming near the beach, which was an amazing sight!

Wilsons Bay

There is so much potential at this beach, but unfortunately, very few fish were caught.
