Fossil Cove is one of those little gems you wish you had discovered earlier. It is a short walk for a great reward. The track leads down some steep steps through light bushland to the gorgeous cove with views across to the Iron Pot lighthouse. The cove is flanked by a large rock archway on one side and a fascinating fossil-filled wave-cut platform on the other – both can be safely explored at low tide. Snorkelling is popular amongst the kelp beds around the shoreline, although be sure to do this in fine weather.
