Overview

High Newton up the coast towards Beadnell, then south to Low Newton via Snook Point, Football Hole beach and Newton Point. (N.B. the tide will dictate the extent of beach walking and also whether the walk is carried out in reverse).

Coastal paths, beach and some minor roads. Some mud and possibly some patches of standing water, which can be bypassed. No stiles and the route is fairly flat.

Coffee stop en-route.
