The walk
Underfoot it is paved paths, concrete, and board and chain paths, with some sandy beach sections.

Carry water for the dog: drinking points along walks like this are rarely signed, so plan as if there are none. Early morning and dusk are the comfortable windows in Arrawarra Headland for an on-lead stroll of this kind, particularly through the warmer months.
