Not very long to walk around the island. The residents are very friendly.

Very easy walk. Absolutely fine in overcast/slightly rainy weather. Enjoyable with some views.

Such a nice walk: forest, wetland, beach and road. Great signage with info about the local area as you go, plenty of toilets and drinking fountains too. A Cafe just after the start of the walk and one at the end. Ferry was $10 per adult return. We took our baby in a carrier and stopped for morning tea at the top of the island, and lunch at a Cafe at the end.

Cute place to stroll around. Sleepy little getaway.

A very enjoyable walk with enough shade for even a hot day. Dogs are not allowed through the wetland section but you could probably bypass that if you needed to. Lovely day trip with a cooling swim at the end.

Nice easy walk around the island. Took the early morning ferry across. Heaps of little beaches you can swim at. No high waves or anything so if you like that kinda of swimming you will love it. Some beautiful views across the water at the other islands. Only one cafe there which opens at 7:30 a.m

To start the hike head towards your right when you get off the ferry you can either follow the path or walk along the little beach. All in all an easy stroll

Ferry is now $5. After about 2 minutes of this walk you get to a big sign saying no dogs allowed.

Nice dry walk, although patches could get wet in wet weather and king tides.
