The beach is located in a stunning coastal area, perfect for cooling off and collecting shells. It's a real hidden gem!

The beach is fantastic, but it's unfortunate that there isn't a store to grab a meal. I've heard there might be a lady with a food truck that comes by, but I haven't seen it yet. The annual beach races are also a blast.

Grasstree Beach is rather uneventful. There used to be rickety homemade jetties where the fishing fleet would dock, but now private pleasure boats have replaced them. Fishing may not be great, but it's a peaceful way to pass the time in the sun.
