RV TRAVEL
The tail of a humpback whale.
MAIN BEACH
To access Main Beach from Point Lookout,
proceed east on the East Coast Road past the
Islander Holiday Resort and turn right on George
Nothling Drive – it’s 2.5km to the beach.
To the left, toward South Gorge, is a great surf
beach (with no 4WD access). Turn right for the
Main Beach 4WD run. It is 2km to a deep, sandy,
rutted track entering on the right.
Turn right, continue for half a kilometre, then turn
left on Fisherman’s Road to The Keyholes (about
2km, watch for deep potholes filled with water).
Park your vehicle and walk the short trail to The
Keyholes, a pristine freshwater lake with superb
swimming.
If you have a kayak with you, paddle through
the lagoon system that extends for about 3km
to the south (no fishing). Return to Main Beach
via the same route. From there, it is 7.5km to the
Causeway.
