Iluka Beach — Attraction in Kolendo

Iluka beach is next level take-your-breath-away beautiful. You enter through @seebooderee national park.

The beach has a connecting creek during high tide and is perfect for the kids to play in and around to see fish, catch crabs and have a swim. The beach is calm and the water is crystal clear. This place most defiantly...
