York Cove Walk — A pleasant walk along the calm waters of York Cove, with views of boats and local birdlife. Lead-on throughout unless council signage says otherwise. Benches and shade appear often enough for a slow dog.

Low Head Pilot Station Precinct Walk — Explore the historic Low Head Pilot Station grounds, with views of the lighthouse, Tamar River entrance, and surrounding parkland. Lead-on throughout unless council signage says otherwise. A coffee stop is never far on the way back.
