Picnic and Whisky Bays are two adjoining beaches on the northern side of Leonard Point. They are separated by the small Picnic Point. Car parks are located to either side of Picnic Point, with walking tracks leading across the foredunes to each beach. Whisky Bay Beach is shorter and receives waves averaging 1.4 m. This results in a rip dominated surf zone, with the bar often detached from the beach, and strong permanent rips against the boundary rocks.
