You'll find Turtle Bay nestled along the stunning Kennedy Walking Track, a gorgeous coastal trail that sets off from the southern end of South Mission Beach. The walk itself is an adventure, taking you through lush rainforest, over boardwalks, and past rocky headlands with breathtaking views of the Family Islands. From the lookout points, keep your eyes peeled for turtles and dugongs gliding through the clear water below. The trail involves some stairs and uneven ground as it winds along the coast, but the scenery makes every step worthwhile. The entire return journey to explore the area is about 8km and takes a couple of hours, offering a perfect mix of beach and forest environments.
