The beach at Verona Sands is actually called Pickup Beach. A secluded sandy beach with great views and basic amenities.
Somewhat protected by Bruny it is generally calm but can be affected by wind waves. Views of Huon Island (Prahee) and Bruny Island (Lunawanna-alonnah).
Verona means ‘truth’ in Italian and is a common name. Also, a town in Italy where Shakespeare based ‘Romeo and Juliet’ – not sure how this relates to the naming of Verona Sands or Pickup Beach but it sounds interesting!
