Coastal scenery is one feature that makes this National Park at the southern end of Kemp Beach a popular spot for picnicking. A range of coastal vegetation types from mangroves through heathland to stunted open eucalypt forest and open tussock grassland occurs. Barbecues and toilets are provided so that you can enjoy a picnic among shady sandpaper figs, narrow leaved ironbarks and quinine trees. Prior to lunch you can work up an appetite on the lovely 2.3km walking track that takes you to the summit and back to the picnic ground with panoramic views of the coastline and Keppel Bay islands with a good chance of seeing foraging turtles and dolphins in the water below. Though not a difficult walk you may arrive back at the picnic area a little hot and sweaty, in this case a swim on beautiful Kemp beach will refresh you and put a fine edge on that appetite. This is a very pleasant spot and an enjoyable walk.
