Mushroom Reef Marine Sanctuary, Flinders

Mushroom Reef Marine Park at low tide is great for beach walks and exploring rock pools and looking for marine life in the mushroom shaped reef.Mushroom Reef Marine Sanctuary
Surfing, swimming and hang gliding are all popular activities here.

We arrived at the wrong time of day, but still enjoyed our visit. Here's a tip: check the tide times first. A steep wooden staircase led down to the sand. The tide was high, but we were holding on... (thanks for the tip, Blondie).

Landing on the beach, I immediately spotted some beach treasures - the antlers of a rare Sea Moose...
