Situated in South East Tasmania off South Arm Road. Extending from Goats Bluff to Cape Direction. Sometimes also known as Roaring Beach but not to be confused with other beaches of the same name. Shown in Google maps incorrectly positioned on the wrong side of the neck.
The east end below the bluff has a surf break known as Wedge (accessible from Goats bluff). The west end has a surf beach known as RSL’s.
The main beach is accessible from the middle with 2 access locations and a 100m walk. The west end is accessed from South Arm via Roaring Beach Road and a 300m walk (add 200m to RSL’s). The beach is named after a ship named ‘Hope’ which sank in 1827. Views of Iron Pot Lighthouse
Once you get there you will experience a secluded pristine beach, undulating sand dunes and often with surf.
