We begin our adventures on the island with a spectacular walk highlighting the amazing coastal scenery. We follow the Cape Queen Elizabeth trail. We don’t complete the full walk today, we walk to Mars Bluff, Miles Beach, the unique rock formations and then return. The first 30 - 40 minutes of the walk is an easy stroll along a wide, sandy track that takes you towards the beach through coastal heathland. We pass between Big Lagoon and Little Lagoon, home to a large number of water birds. A short 10 minute uphill takes us over Mars Bluff, where the slight elevation provides a beautiful vantage of the surrounding coast. We walk down onto Miles Beach and explore the unique rock formations. We have plenty of time to take in this wonderful location, photograph the Arch and enjoy some morning tea before returning back to the start of the trail. The walk we complete is a total of around 6 kilometres, and is classified as easy, coastal walking over mostly flat terrain.
