    So beautiful + a great place to just sit or hike. Wear appropriate footwear and be prepared for a solid hike back up.

    Whirlpool Beach: where even getting lost is part of the adventure! Trust me, you'll want a guide or a really good sense of direction, unless you fancy taking scenic detours that add a laugh-worthy extra 30 minutes to your journey. This trail isn't your grandma's Sunday stroll; it's got more ups and downs than a soap opera storyline. Not recommended for the young, the old, or the high-heeled!

    Ah, but the thrill of the trail is worth every gasp for air. Steep spots that make you question your life choices are quickly forgotten when you reach the beach. Gorgeous doesn't even begin to describe it. Think of it as nature's VIP lounge, complete with whirls and cool currents for your viewing pleasure. Oh, and it's a fisherman's dream—so quiet you can hear the fish planning their escape.

    Short on time? No worries! This is a micro-vacation packed into a 30-minutes hike. And if you're counting, it's exactly 198 steps to reach the top. So, you can skip leg day at the gym. The view? Oh, it's like your favorite Instagram filter but better, especially when the sun's out to play.

    So put on those hiking boots and get ready for a whirlwind of a time at Whirlpool Beach! Just don't forget to catch your breath before tackling those steps on the way back. Trust me, you'll need it!

    Nice trails, Lovely scenic views, Okay beach.
    There was nothing special about the beach area itself. In fact it was little bit dilapidated with some graffiti drawn in some sort of concrete floor-base (see my Whirlpool River Park review). Nice lovely scenic view but I wish people would better take care of this pebbled beach (not for swimming). Sigh

    This is on of my favourite hiking places. There are a few trails to follow and you get a great up close view of the whirlpool.
    I definitely recommend this place if your looking for hiking trails.
    Edit: Do be careful when hiking the trails down here as the water level does rise and fall throughout the day so stay aware of your surroundings. Other than that enjoy yourself.

    A very nice place to hike if you've got a guide or is familiar with the area.
    Otherwise, it'd be quite easy to get lost and loop around a an extra half hour haha. The trail to the whirlpool at the bottom can be quite difficult for the elder or young. Lots of rocks at different elevations can make the trail rather hard to traverse.
