Established in 2002, it protects intertidal rock platforms, subtidal reefs and seagrass beds supporting diverse marine life. The sanctuary is noted for accessible rockpooling at low tide, snorkeling and diving, and its adjoining foreshore reserve with coastal tea-tree, walking tracks and views across the bay.
