Sunset Beach overnight hike - Beginner Friendly

Overnight Hike to Sunset Beach
Bowling Green Bay National Park
📅 28–29 June | 🥾 Grade 5 | 🚶‍♂️ ~10 km return
📧 RSVP: [email protected] (Limit: 15 people)
🏕 QPWS camping permit required

Join us for an overnight adventure to Sunset Beach on Cape Cleveland’s remote western coastline. We’ll follow a flagged but faint bush track through semi-evergreen rainforest and coastal scrub, eventually arriving at the pristine sands of Sunset Beach — also known as Little Beach or Bray Beach.

The journey involves rough terrain, off-track navigation, and minimal shade, making it a Grade 5 walk recommended for experienced hikers. An optional exploration of Paradise Beach is available for those keen.

Bring 6 L of water (minimum), all your overnight gear, food, and be fully self-sufficient. Note that there are no water sources or facilities.

☀️ Winter is the ideal time for this remote walk. Come prepared for sun exposure and beach camping.

Let’s enjoy a stunning, quiet beach together — leave no trace and consider helping with a beach cleanup.

Spots are limited to 15 people. RSVP essential.
