Bowen’s famous Walk to the Lighthouse is an absolute must! ☀️💦🌴😍 Starting from Dalrymple Point on the mainland, it took us around 25mins to walk to one of Queensland’s oldest lighthouses on North Head Island. The views are incredible and keep your eye out for all the huge red starfish and sea cucumbers along the way! Make sure you wear reef shoes or some old sneakers and it’s recommended to only attempt this on a low tide of around 0.2m. Start the walk around an hour before the low tide mark to allow enough time to return. 😀 #visitbowen #bowen #lovewhitsundays #lighthousewalk #thisisqueensland #seeaustralia @Visit Whitsundays @Queensland, Australia @Australia
