Roy Henderson Walking/Biking Track
Starting at the beach end of Manuka Street, the Roy Henderson Path passes through a range of coastal vegetation before emerging at the edge of Shallow Inlet.
After crossing the road the path continues through beautiful teatree woodlands and new growth eucalypts, then into a forest of well established banksia trees.
Finally the path passes the tidal flats of Shallow Inlet with views towards the rolling Foster hills.
The Roy Henderson Path is often host to a large array of birdlife including the popular Yellow-Tailed Black Cockatoo.
It takes approximately 45 minutes one way to complete the 2.4km path which is an easy walk.

Sightseeing
At Sandy Point's eastern end, a sealed road through the Coastal and Marine Park takes you to Shallow Inlet, where the compacted sand allows you to drive your car onto the beach to park, launch your boat, rig your windsurfer or kite - or simply enjoy the scenery and activities on the water.
Spectacular views across Shallow Inlet and down to Wilsons Promontory can be enjoyed by walking along the Inlet or climbing the sand dunes. The Inlet can also be reached on foot or by bicycle, either along the surf beach and across the dunes or by using the Roy Henderson Trail, a well compacted track from the eastern end of the Sandy Point township through the bush to the Inlet.
There are toilet and barbecue facilities and plenty of safe places for the family to swim and play while you are enjoying the water.
