Just steps from the property, a 250-step bush trail winds through serene dunes, opening up to a stunning 16-kilometre beach—a breathtaking escape waiting to be explored.

One of the highlights of Charlie's is the heavenly outdoor shower. Perfect for rinsing off after a beach day, it becomes magical at night under a sky filled with sparkling stars. Watch for shooting stars—you’ll be amazed by how many you’ll see.
