Lily Beach
A small east-coast bay enclosed by rocks, with wooden walkways, picnic areas and natural rock pools. It is good for families who want to wade.
Lily Beach lies north of Ethel Beach. It is a small bay enclosed by limestone cliffs. A wooden walkway and steps at the entrance lead down to the sea. At low tide the reef forms shallow pools where children can paddle and watch small fish and crabs. Barbecue shelters and toilets are nearby, and it is a popular weekend picnic spot for locals. It can be included in the same itinerary as Ethel Beach. Stay within the inner bay, because the outer reef edge has large waves and strong currents.
