14 KM
Grade A
The contrast of a busy working harbour and a sleepy picturesque harbour at the start and finish, along with a steep grassy prehistoric like coastline provide the key ingredients for this short trip. An impressive headland being the constant lure at the end of the trip with the possibilities of dolphins on route make for a good short day out.
