FLYING FISH COVE
Flying Fish Cove emerges as a highlight for accessible beach exploration. Its commercial jetty features a ramp leading directly to the water's edge, providing a seamless experience. During high tide, ocean access becomes even more effortless, making it an ideal spot for snorkelling enthusiasts with good swimming abilities. A Sea Scooter Tour with Freedive CI is a great way to explore the spectacular reef for those who have lower fitness ability, are less confident swimmers or have injuries that may limit their confidence in the water.
