Riddell Beach
A red-cliffed beach south of Gantheaume Point, where red earth, white sand and blue sea stand in clear contrast. Few visitors come, making it a hidden spot for photos and sunsets.
The beach lies between the southern end of Cable Beach and Gantheaume Point. Towering red sandstone cliffs have been weathered into varied shapes, and at low tide there are rock pools on the reef flat. It is much quieter than Cable Beach, ideal for walking, photography and watching the evening sunset. There are no lifeguards, and swimming is not advised in the wet season. You need a car. Park, then walk down the slope to the beach.
