At the southernmost point of Western Australia’s vast coast, at the bottom of a winding set of timber stairs, is Elephant’s Cove, a sheltered, calm rectangular cove with an aqua sea. The white sand is interrupted only by the colossal, smooth stones at the waters’ edge that look like a herd of pachyderms bathing. Although the water looks tranquil, the area is prone to rips so for a safer swim, make the short walk to nearby Greens Pool.
