You will need sturdy walking shoes,your swimming costume, towel and insect repellent at certain times of the year.
Hike to the Lighthouse : More of a hard walk than a hike, this trip takes approximately 25 minutes through the rainforest. The path is rocky and uneven in some places, so good walking shoes are required.Vatulele does not recommend the lighthouse itself, but the view from the to from the top is spectacular.
The legendary Red Prawns : This involves a short boat trip and pleasant fifteen-minute walk along the base of oursandstone cliffs, through tropical rainforest until finally arriving at the tidal rock poolswhich house Vatulele?s sacred red prawns.
