The gateway to Penguin Island - Awesome spot for decent sized squid as the jetty is mostly surrounded by seaweed so don't be surprised if you lose a jig or 6... Weather wise, usually a bit windy at nights and some days its blowing a gale.. Fishing is a bit of a hit & miss but when they're around there's the usual - herring, whiting, KG whiting, skippy, flat head, pink snapper (babies), occasionally snook - blue manner crabs as well... security wise, car park is a fully lit area until about 3am and the jetty has motion sensored lighting as well but somewhat dull so headlights still come in handy.
