Area Information:
Beaches: If you would like to go to the beach, our local bay - Victoria Bay - is definitely the best! On any coast line in the world, I dare you to find a swimming beach that can equal the beauty, swimming and surfing qualities of Vic Bay! With only a few houses, it is a non-commercial beach and weather wise... the best of the best! Green grass to lie on, whales in season, dolphins year round, excellent surf - a definite must! Hikers will enjoy the scenic hike between Vic Bay and Wilderness over the Kaaimans Railway Bridge.
