It has great scenic beauty and is home to an amazing variety of wildlife besides being home to the second oldest lighthouse in Australia. It was built in 1836!

This tour will take you to the charming villages of Snug and Kettering. An informative commentary will give you a glimpse into local life and the fishing community that lives there.
