No trip to Beachport in the Limestone Coast is complete without a cruise along the Bowman scenic drive, a fully sealed route which follows the spectacular rugged coastline of the Southern Ocean.
Wind your way around the bends overlooking the stunning ocean, idyllic beaches, rock pools and reefs. Take in the wonderful views from one of the many vantage points along the way or stop to enjoy a leisurely walk down to sandy beaches and wander out onto rocky outcrops at the Salmon Hole and Post Office Rock.
The kids will love rolling down the steep sandy dunes or exploring in the rock pools.

Please note there are dangerous undertows along these beaches. Take care...
