We had sunshine on our visit, although there was a cold wind, so it was a pleasant visit. We'd heard this was a good place to see whales and dolphins but weren't really expecting to see any. We ended up watching a basking shark in the bay to the right of the point for over an hour!

The walk down the hill is steep so would be difficult for those with poor mobility, although there is a handrail to help.

A wonderful calming place to watch the wildlife go by
