West Cape Howe National Park

National Parks and Reserves

There’s plenty of adventure on offer at West Cape Howe National Park. Go rock-climbing on granite cliffs or hang gliding at Shelley Beach.

During summer, easterly winds create good steady flying conditions. Take-off for hang gliders is from the lookout car park.

White sandy beaches offer idyllic swimming and fishing. Throw in a line from the beach and you could snare a catch of Australian salmon, mulloway, whiting and herring.

Scenic bushwalking trails along the coast lead you through the bush and offer spectacular views.
