Timeline
18:41
Grab a cocktail and settle on the deck at The Shorehouse. This is a great spot to sit, enjoy a drink, and wait for the light to change over the water.
19:11
Walk from the Shorehouse to Swanbourne Beach. The beach is a sunbathing spot with a steep sandy descent. It is more relaxed than the main swimming beaches and allows clothing-optional bathing north of this point.
19:26
Stand at Swanbourne Beach to watch the sun set toward the WSW. The sky will turn gold and orange as the day ends over the Indian Ocean.
Local tip
The atmosphere at the clothing-optional section just north of Swanbourne Beach is friendly and relaxing. If you prefer swimming, note that there are no lifeguards here and the water gets deep quickly.
Check before you go
- The Shorehouse is open for lunch and dinner, so check their current hours if you arrive very early or late.
