Evidence of the town's mining history can be found at the former coal-loading jetty, the old rusted iron machinery surrounded by wildflowers, and the array of 19th-century miner's cottages. With a beautiful stretch of sand, verdant hills and bushlands, this quiet town boasts a friendly community and stunning natural attractions, making it the perfect place to unplug, unwind, and reconnect with the simpler side of life.
