If you’re seeking sandy solitude with your dog, then Hardwicke Bay is the answer. The perfect isolated stretch of soft sand to escape the crowds, you can forget fighting the hordes to find a sandy spot to claim as your own at this sleepy seaside town. Chances are there won’t be another soul in sight as you play with your pooch on the snow-white sand and slip into these sparkling shallow waters.

Dogs are welcome off leash on all beaches in Yorke Peninsula (except in National Parks).
