More info
Most popular rides are along the beach front from Middleton Beach to Emu Point or along the Board Walk from Middleton Beach Jetty to the City centre. Very panoramic views over King George Sound and Princess Royal Harbour with several photographic spots, and benches along the way. Stop and take in the spectacular scenery. Be sure to snap a photo or two - beautiful area. If you are in the City Centre, this path will take you to Middleton Beach with the option of continuing to Emu Point.
Note: The path to/from Middleton Beach/Emu Point is flat while the Middleton Beach/ City Centre path does have some hills - but very worthwhile for the scenery - and there are rest spots along the way. Be sure to take your camera!
