Short Point Recreation Reserve is an excellent choice for anyone who appreciates the beauty of nature, peace, and the view of the sea. When I visited last week, I was immediately captivated by the panoramic views. The walking paths are perfect for long, relaxing strolls surrounded by greenery, providing a sense of tranquility and connection with nature.
Nearby, there's a campsite offering a chance for an unforgettable camping experience under the stars, far away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The path to the beach is a special experience, as it leads past a stream, adding a unique charm to the visit.
A special feature of this place are the benches strategically placed to offer magnificent views of the beach. Sitting there, watching the horizon or the sunset, is truly unforgettable.
The entire area is lush with greenery and excellently marked, allowing for easy orientation and exploration. The parking lot is another big plus, as it is spacious and free, which is quite rare these days.
For dog owners, this park is the right choice, as they can enjoy walks with their pets. All in all, Short Point Recreation Reserve is a fantastic place to visit, whether you're looking for a quiet corner for reading, an active way to spend time, or just want to enjoy the beautiful views.

Still walkable but wooded and over grown. I assume all will eventually return to normal but not at...
Read moreExcellent view of the beach, looks like pretty new amenities but we didn't use them so we can't really judge them. Beautiful expansive car park and the best part about it was that it was a dog friendly dog off leash area the only problem is a big dogs mix with little dogs and that could be a problem for a tiny poodle!!! Unfortunately the path leading into the dog Reserve was badly corrugated due to recent rain so it needs to be fixed. This looks like a lovely place to come and spend some time in the summer months when you can sit on your verandah and look out to sea... Lovely spot just made for tourists and...
