Take your time and take in the landscape on the way this is a great walk with a great beach to end it at. Try the walk from Hahei beach rather than starting at the top car park.

Take your swimming togs for a swim once you reach Cathedral Cove. Wide, sealed path makes for easy walking but with some hills and steps. Take your time and enjoy!
