Pearly Beach has been a seaside holiday spot for families since the 1920s. It suits the name”Pearl of all beaches” with its epic long white sandy beach. It is a great place to view Southern Right whales from July to September when they are often seen close to the shore. Local wisdom says that bad weather is on the way when you see whales breaching.
