Full Description

Located on a tidal outrcrop are an impressive collection of approximately 19 bait holes just above the high tide mark. They range from small, shallow concave depressions, up to one large circular depression measuring 0.18m in diameter & a depth of 0.07m in depth. This large feature stands out well as it has been colonised by gut weed. An irregular short causeway runs from the shore to the outcrop.
