Shelly Beach Koonya faces north into Norfolk Bay and is one of the few accessible beaches along this coastline (due to private ownership of beach access).
A small isolated and protected beach that is great for a private visit to a little out-of-the-way beach. Cliffs to explore, snorkeling, swimming, great views and fishing maybe?
Access via Shelly Beach Road off Nubeena Road about 4-5 km from the Taranna turnoff – you will not experience any crowds here!
