Surprise Bay, located on King Island's southern tip in Tasmania, offers a serene coastal retreat. The bay features a 750-meter sandy beach bordered by low quartzite points and reefs, creating a sheltered environment ideal for relaxation. The area is renowned for its extensive parabolic dunes, some reaching up to 30 meters in height, providing unique landscapes for exploration. Visitors can enjoy the Copperhead Trail, a 3.5-kilometer out-and-back path along the cliff tops, offering panoramic ocean views. The Seal Rocks Lookout provides a picnic area and serves as the trail's access point. For those interested in camping, the beach offers a designated campsite at its eastern end, accessible via a walking track. Surprise Bay's temperate oceanic climate ensures mild conditions year-round, making it a pleasant destination for outdoor activities.
