Eagles Nest

Eagles Nest is a sandstone sea stack that sits on a wide rock platform and is awash at high tide.

On the eastern side of the Nest is a 250 m long platform beach lying at the base of 40 m high, vegetated bluffs. It is fronted by continuous, low tide rock flats and several rock reefs. The Nest and reefs reduce waves at the beach to about 1 m and produce a narrow, steep beach. The surf is dominated by the rocks and reefs.

Eagles Nest is a popular photo stop. The beach can be reached from the road side car park, however be very cautious if swimming at the beach.
