Killiecrankie Nature Recreation Area

Killiecrankie Nature Recreation Area, located on Flinders Island's northwest coast, offers a serene coastal retreat. The area features a low-gradient, white sand beach stretching 800 meters, ideal for swimming, snorkeling, and fishing. The beach is bordered by granite outcrops and sheltered by Nobby Rock, providing calm waters and picturesque views. The western end serves as a launch area for small boats, with several fishing boats often moored nearby. The area also offers picnic tables, a free gas BBQ, freshwater, public toilets, and a shower. For those interested in hiking, the Wombat Rock Track leads to Mount Killiecrankie, offering stunning views of the surrounding landscape. Additionally, the area is known for its "Killiecrankie diamonds," a form of topaz found in the region.
