Stewarts Bay is located near Port Arthur between Garden and Fryingpan points. Well-protected, the beach is ideal for families and kids.
A must-visit if you are in the area, not usually too busy with great views. My friend Christine grew up here and describes it as a positive and pivotal part of growing up in the area. Alberry Creek enters into the bay for a safe paddling area. Access to the beach to launch small boats and kayaks, etc.
There is a park area for a picnic with nearby toilets.
