A short adventurous walk to a secluded beach with stunning views over to the soaring cliffs at Cloudy Bay and East Cloudy Head.
Mabel Bay is a short but adventurous walking trail through coastal scrub from the carpark lookout on Lighthouse Road, leading down to the beach some 60 metres below. The track is very steep in places, but the beach at the bottom is truly worth the walk.
