Beaches

We are ideally located and only a short walk to Surfers Point at Surf Beach. Whilst all the beaches on the Island offer something special - we have listed a few that cater for different activities.
We love that Surf Beach is a short stroll from our home. It is the perfect place to watch hardcore surfers or take a leisurely stroll along the beach. Due to large waves and a strong current it is not recommended for swimming or novice surfers. If you're wanting to swim or learning to surf is on your list we recommend heading over to Smith's Beach where there are a couple of surf schools, and a patrolled beach.

Erehwon Point is at the east end of Cowes Beach and is great for families. There are a number of shady trees, a great playground for toddlers and young children and the beach is only a few metres away. The area also has shelters with electric BBQ's.
