An empty beach with the tide going out, leaving a damp tide line, and a spotlight of sun on dry sand at the dunes, which are covered in native bush.

The sky above is bright blue with some fluffy clouds.

Boambee Headland looking north, Sawtell, New South Wales, Australia.

The headland is definitely not a tourist thirst trap. If you're not a local, you'd easily miss it.
