Starting from just west of Raoul Bay Retreat, Stormlea, the Shipstern Bluff Track takes you to the western end of Raoul Bay, optionally visiting Cape Raoul Lookout along the way. This captivating journey promises breathtaking vistas regardless of the prevailing weather conditions. As you traverse the well-marked paths, be prepared to be mesmerized by the awe-inspiring scale of Shipstern Bluff, an experience that renders the trip down truly unforgettable. Pause at the numerous lookout points, offering serene spots for birdwatching and panoramic views of the rugged coastal cliffs stretching into the horizon. Delve into the rich marine ecosystem thriving in these waters, where sightings of dolphins, whales, and seals amidst the wild waves are not uncommon. Keep a keen eye out for encounters with pademelons and echidnas as well. There is a car park, public toilets, and a shoe-washing station near the start. However, exercise caution near the base of Shipstern Bluff, as tides can swiftly escalate, presenting potential hazards near the water's edge. Take extra care near the cliff faces. Let us begin by acknowledging the Paredarerme people, Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
