mushroom reef marine sanctuary
Mushroom Reef Sanctuary is a fantastic spot for a family rock pooling adventure with stunning views of cliffs and the coastline out to The Nobbies. Kids can explore small, stable rocks, find shells, and spot crabs—just be sure to wear shoes. Check tide times, as much of the reef is submerged at high tide.

Flinders Blowhole offers dramatic cliffs, black sand, and rocky formations where waves create a natural blowhole effect. A wooden boardwalk and steps from the lookout lead to ‘Elephant Rock,’ with rockpools to explore and shells to discover. Keep an eye out for birds, and with luck, you might even spot a whale from the cliffs.
