From the mountains, descend further west to Westhaven Inlet and track the rugged and remotely beautiful wild North West coastline for a landing on the beach, where you can explore sand dunes and eroded rock formations. Here you will sit back, relax and enjoy a gourmet picnic lunch with stunning scenery.
