Geltwood Beach is a remote and rugged coastal destination within Canunda National Park, offering 40 kilometers of pristine shoreline for shore-based anglers. The southern section of the park is characterized by expansive mobile sand dunes and long stretches of open beach backed by low foredunes, providing classic surf fishing terrain. The area is steeped in history, with evidence of the Aboriginal Boandik people present, and was named for the tragic 1876 shipwreck of the iron barque Geltwood. Access requires a capable four-wheel drive vehicle, and the landscape offers a mix of beach driving, dramatic limestone cliffs in the northern park sections, and important conservation areas for native wildlife.
