It includes a historic farm, beaches, inlets, islands, headlands, dunes and lagoons, all with amazing variety of plants and wildlife, wombats, wallabies and forester kangaroos will be seen grazing during the day and at dusk. There is also an easy nature trail where one can observe the wetland birds. The long curve of Bakers Beach is a popular recreation area with camping facilities and water sports area. |

The Rubicon area not only boasts stunning scenery, the beaches are a national icon and one of the country’s major tourist drawcards. With soft yellow sand and crystal blue waters, it’s the perfect place to spend a sunny afternoon. Freer’s Beach is the most well known beach in the area and is the main beach at Shearwater. When the tide is out, a sandy path appears to Rabbit Island, just off the beach. It’s a great place to find oysters and has deep tidal pools. Keep a eye out for the tide though, as you may need to swim, rather than walk back. |
