About Jobson's Cove
Jobson’s Cove is a tiny cove just west of Warwick Long Bay, almost enclosed by limestone rocks that form a sort of natural pool. The sand is pink and the water, on calm days, is clear and peaceful.
Because the sea enters the cove through narrow openings, the water is usually calmer than on the surrounding open beaches. That makes Jobson’s Cove a favourite spot for families with small children and for those who want to snorkel among the rocks.
The sand covers only a few metres and it tends to fill up early in summer. You reach it on foot by a short trail from Warwick Long Bay or from the parking area at the western tip.
