Best Beach Walks Near Bokarina
Bokarina is the sweet spot on the Coast—quieter beaches, open sky, and the kind of walks that make you feel like you’ve been away for hours (even if it’s only 30 minutes). Here are a few of our favourite local walks to pair with a takeaway coffee.
Bokarina Beach to Wurtulla (and back)
Distance: choose your own (easy out-and-back)
This is the easy, no-fuss option. Start at Bokarina Beach and stroll north toward Wurtulla along the sand. It’s wide, open and usually less crowded than the bigger beaches—perfect for a calm morning walk.
Lake Kawana Foreshore Walk
Distance: flexible loop options
If the wind is up or you want something more sheltered, the paths around Lake Kawana are a solid choice. It’s flat, pram-friendly, and a good option if you’re walking with kids or want a quicker lap.
Point Cartwright Lookout Walk
Distance: short, scenic, high reward
When you want a “big view” without a big mission, head to Point Cartwright. The lookout area gives you sweeping coastline, and it’s one of the best spots around for sunrise or a quick reset.
Tips for a Better Walk
- Start early for cooler temps and quieter paths.
- Sun protection is non-negotiable.
- Bring a reusable cup if you can.
- Stay aware of tides if you’re walking long stretches of sand.
- Watch for whales in June–November.
