I haven’t seen it at high tide. There is a very broad expanse of beach with a wide firm tidal area. Vehicles are allowed north of the rocks, but there is only a narrow driveable passage across the rocks. Long queues on Saturday afternoon to wait for vehicles coming the other way.
B and B said I had to do a camel ride. So I did. Iconic camels on Cable Beach. Here’s a selfie:

It’s 5 km from here to Gantheaume Point to the south.

And. Very busy before sunset on the beach to the north.

and of course the sunset over Cable Beach is not to be missed. This lot saw it.

Going… going …
