Itineraries
West coast in a half day
If you arrive on a morning boat, a half day is enough to cover the main west-coast stops: Broken Beach, Angel's Billabong, Paluang Cliff and Crystal Bay.
A sample order
Land at Toyapakeh, then go straight to Broken Beach and Angel's Billabong on the same headland, continue to Paluang Cliff, and finish at Crystal Bay for swimming and sunset.
Timing
Allow about 45 to 60 minutes at Broken Beach, similar at Angel's Billabong, a shorter stop at Paluang Cliff, and the rest of the afternoon at Crystal Bay. Add rough-road buffer.
Make it smooth
Book a full-day driver so the loop is continuous, carry water and cash, and confirm sea conditions before any water activity at Crystal Bay.
- Land at Toyapakeh for the shortest transfer.
- Use one driver for the whole loop.
- Finish at Crystal Bay for swimming and sunset.
