Castle Rock Great Short Walk
Highlights
Castle Rock Walk on Flinders Island is an epic beach adventure perfect for young explorers! This trail winds along the beautiful shoreline of Marshall Bay, leading you to the massive granite boulder known as Castle Rock. Along the way, you’ll cross sandy beaches and discover coastal views that are simply breathtaking.
This 2.5-hour return walk is easy to follow and best enjoyed at low tide. Start at the Castle Rock car park near Allports Beach or take the Marshall Bay track for a different view. You’ll also find picnic spots, barbecues, and even a camping area nearby to make the most of your day out.
It’s a fun and safe walk, but keep an eye on the waves during high tide. Get ready for a coastal adventure like no other!
