Uncover white sand beaches

Grab your beach towel and umbrella because Vincentia is home to 6.5km of white sand beaches, stretching from Huskisson in the north to Hyams Beach in the south. Blenheim Beach is a great snorkelling spot, and there’s a nearby reserve with a picnic area. Orion Beach is one of Vincentia’s best-kept secrets.

A great way to experience the area’s natural beauty is on the White Sands Walk, which begins at the Greenfield Beach picnic area in Vincentia. The 2.5km loop walk finishes at the incredible Hyams Beach. To return to Greenfield Beach, take the Scribbly Gum track through tall forest and woodland.
