We originally intended to do the Pretty Beach to Pebbly Beach circuit, but set off from the wrong beach (Merry Beach), and came across the rather impressive headland called Snapper Point. This has tall striated cliffs and large rock platforms, and is worth a visit. You can’t continue around the headland though, so we returned to Merry Beach and climbed Durras Mountain to the large water tank at the summit. Although somewhat obscured by rejuvenating native vegetation, there are still partial views of the coast.
Track Notes
You can walk to the cliffs on Snapper Point from Merry Beach, although not sure if this is possible at high tide so best check. You can then return to Merry Beach and walk to the start of the Pretty Beach to Durras Mountain Track near Pretty Beach Campground.
