and has a monument installed near the vegetation boundary. Informal beach access tracks
are also located in this area.
A fishing jetty is located at Dead Finish providing a water activity opportunity for people with
a disability. The jetty structure is in good condition but the access track and the carpark area
could be improved to facilitate access.
The Flinders Bay area has three main coastal access points, including Old Flinders Jetty
lookout, Flinders Swimming beach and the boat ramp area. The major infrastructure is
located near the boat ramp, including toilets, carpark, picnic shelter and outdoor furniture.
Beach access is provided off Albany Terrace near Loch Street, Deere Street and Chaudiere
Place. Most of the usage in these areas is made by local residents to access the coast and
minimal infrastructure is provided. A lookout, sheltered seating and steps are provided
opposite Chaudiere Place.
Seine Bay area is located near the Colourpatch Café and is equipped with carpark, boat
ramp, BBQ shelter and toilets. This area is very popular and used by tourists and locals due
