Walked the loop earlier today. Lovely coastal, scenic looped walk on pathway & beach to the lighthouse & back. Well worth doing.Full review by BOHSMAN

Took this walk while staying in Port Fairy. We were lucky enough to see the tops of 2 swamp wallabies under the trees. A refreshing walk which takes you along the beach. Popular with local surfers.Full review by Linda T
