Before reaching Long Beach North, located on the far side of the Beecroft Peninsula Live Fire Weapons Range, you'll encounter numerous deterrents and danger warnings. The defense forces, however, are willing to let you navigate the unexploded ordnance after a brief chat with the friendly guards at the gates, where they take your name and mobile number... just in case something happens.
The journey continues on some sketchy roads until you finally arrive at a car park with a bathroom, which connects to a decent path leading to the beach. True to its name, Long Beach is indeed long, and when we visited in the morning, it was uninhabited and very calm.
We were glad to have brought our snorkeling gear, as the fish density near the headland to the right was incredibly high, some of the best we've seen in Australia. From large fish and rays to schools that merged to form vibrant shoals of color and movement, it was a spectacular sight.
The experience was so captivating and entertaining that we stayed in the water until fatigue forced us to return to shore. We're even considering heading back there again tomorrow...
贾维斯湾还有其他同样令人愉快但没有那么隐蔽的海滩。如果您在寻找一处可以独享隐私和更加安静的地方,这可能就是适合您的地方!请记住,只有周末可以开车前往,因为土地通道在工作日关闭。
