Wear grippy footwear
Coastal lookouts and the Tessellated Pavement are wet and uneven—sturdy shoes with good traction reduce slip risk.
Bring a waterproof layer
Wind-driven spray at Remarkable Cave and cliff edges can soak you; a light waterproof shell keeps you comfortable.
Mind cliff edges
Wind can be strong on exposed lookouts—stay behind barriers and follow your guide’s instructions.
Carry refillable water and snacks
There are café stops but limited options between towns—having water and a small snack keeps energy up during walks.
Sturdy hiking shoes
Grip and ankle support on wet rock and coastal steps are important for safety and comfort.
Light waterproof jacket
Protects against wind-driven spray and sudden showers common on the peninsula.
Refillable water bottle (1L+)
Stay hydrated during the 7–8 hour day; refill options are limited between stops.
Camera with polarizer or phone with weather protection
Captures strong coastal light and reduces glare when shooting rock formations and sea views.
