Queens Beach

A smaller beach than most might expect.

It was a women’s convalescent home in the early 20th century and later an aged care. Now, people watch an unforgettable sunset by the sea here.

Coastal 500-m walk, usually with a picturesque view at any time of the day.

Short walking track from Shark Beach to Vaucluse town centre.

A historic building by the harbour. While now it may be used as an event centre, tourists come here, often to see the outside.

Only a three-gun battery remains. The passageways, tunnels, magazine store and barrack room are now partially buried. The stone lintel cover of the entry to the rear emplacement was smashed and the tunnel filled with debris, allowing water to seep in causing damage to the interior. The stonework of the lower emplacements and connecting passages are in good condition and there is still one gun emplacement located above ground.
