Information

Fishers Point is only accessible by walking 2.5km from the Whale Sculpture one way (5km return). The Fishers Point Trail is isolated and presents you with gorgeous rocky headlands, pristine beaches and a bit of history. At the end of the beaches lay the ruins of a Pilot Station and Lighthouse, both built in 1843. The trail starts at Cockle Creek which is the last sign of human existence heading south or west save for a small hiking station on the far southwest point of the island.
