About this place
What to expect
The secluded beach at Stokes Bay, located on Kangaroo Island's serene north coast, is protected from the pounding surf by a giant pool surrounded by rocks. Voted Australia's Best Beach 2023, Stokes Bay is a surprise, and it all starts with the entrance that will keep you guessing. This tranquil location can be found by walking east of the bay, follow the signs pointing to the 'Beach' and make your way through the headland of boulders before emerging to a pristine white sandy beach with a sheltered rock pool - perfect for swimming.
