Nelly Bay

Magnetic Harbour in Nelly Bay will be your first taste of life on the island. There's a wide range of busy but relaxing eating and sleeping options and a decent beach. There’s also a children’s playground towards the northern end of the beach, and good snorkelling on the fringing coral reef.
