The lighthouse makes for a great photo opp and the walk through the moonahs to get there is charming. The main strip has a lovely wine bar and the local IGA houses artisan breads and good produce. There is a surf beach that gets amazing rockpools in low tide and bay beach to explore.

Charming town on the river with so many lovely shops and places to eat. Mooch about the streets and enjoy the gorgeous architecture. Paddleboard the river, nice park for the kids, 2 golf courses. Drive the coastal road to 13th beach and swoon at the views.
