What the redevelopment included
The 2023 government tourism project upgraded paving, lighting, railings and kiosk areas around the jetty zone. Improved surfaces help, but they are not proof of a fully continuous accessible route.
Ask about current gradients, steps, entry arrangements and assistance before travelling with a wheelchair, pram or reduced mobility. Paving alone does not establish accessibility.
What to check beforehand
Contact or check on arrival for a step-free path from parking to the viewpoint, drop-off options, toilet accessibility and any assistance available.
- Confirm the route is continuous, not just paved in sections.
- Ask about a safe drop-off point.
- Plan a shorter visit if heat or access is difficult.
