Swim | A trip that involves swimmingWalk | A bushwalk of any kind short or longSlow pace | A trip where the leader will set an easy pace.This is one of my favourite coastal walks as it takes you past numerous beaches where a swim is definitely possible and also many interesting formations such as Ghosties Beach sea caves and the historical coal loader at CHB. For a relaxing cruise along the littoral line, it's hard to beat.
