Este o plajă cu nisip gri. Arată bine, dar nu este neapărat uimitoare. Iată câteva fotografii cu întreaga plajă. Când veniți aici, va trebui să parcați și apoi să mergeți 2 km până la plajă. Este o plimbare de aproximativ 10 minute. De asemenea, dacă sunteți pe plajă, puteți merge spre dreapta și să vă plimbați pe pietrele din jurul pădurii.

O plajă mică și drăguță, ascunsă. Urmând Google Maps, a fost ușor să găsim parcarea, iar de acolo este o plimbare de aproximativ 30 de minute. Am avut plaja doar pentru noi când am vizitat. Foarte neobișnuită cu nisipul său distinctiv negru, dar a fost bine să o vedem, deoarece nu sunt multe în Marea Britanie.

Nice little beach tucked away. Following Google maps it was easy to find the car park and from there it's about 30 mins walk. We had the beach to ourselves when visited. Very unusual with the distinctive black sand, but it was good to see, as not many in the UK.

O plajă frumoasă cu o priveliște grozavă (fotografia arată priveliștea de mai sus pe drum). Am petrecut ceva timp aici pe drumul de întoarcere de la plimbarea către Maidens lui MacLeod (o plimbare care, deși un pic lungă de 16 km, aș recomanda-o). Unii oameni par să conducă până jos, dar drumul este destul de accidentat. Există o parcare mai sus pe drum, aproape de poarta pentru Orbost House.

A nice beach with a great view (picture shows view from further up the track). We spent some time here on the way back from walking to MacLeod's Maidens (a walk which, whilst a little long at 16km, I would recommend). Some people seem to drive all the way down but the track is fairly rough. There is a car park further up the track near to the gate for Orbost house.
