Who could resist this stunning, wide beach with "Beach Bum Cafe" on tap (the number is in the Kittyhawk manual at the house) - foil-wrapped fish and a chilled bottle of Minuti Rose - you will need to book but it's well worth it! Open air restaurant means there's no air-con but sea breeze works well - there's no need to dress up -just grab a serong and enjoy!
