Itinerary description

A short loop starting and ending at Sea Shack this loop follows the coast path and road until the point just after birthday bay before heading back via the upper road past the lighthouse and back down to sea Shack. If attempting this trail in late August or until mid September one can view the spectacular wildflowers in bloom although this would be a good trail at almost all times of the year. Just note that the sun can be harsh so take care with sun protection and keep hydrated as the wind although cool can dehydrate. This trail is easy with no exposure to heights of kind and follows a clear road in and out its near impossible to get lost. That being said be careful of cars speeding down the dirt road to and from the camping area, be alert.
