Dolphin Cottage is a very relaxing and private holiday retreat which is close to the beach (4 min walk), a surf shop with equipment hire and lessons available and a very handy cafe/gourmet food store just 200 meters away.
The views of the sea and the dam add to the atmosphere. Bring your binoculars for the birds on the dam and ships at sea in Bass Strait.
During off peak you will find the beach will be quieter but always expect a few surfers in the water if the waves are up. At low tide you can explore the rugged coastline all the way to Cape Woolamai.
Cowes and the island towns have lots of activity all year round.
