Guide
Moes Rock is a named coastal lookout and exposed rock shelf off Stony Creek Road in Booderee National Park. Come for surf rolling across the rocks and an open view over the bay toward Cape St George Historic Lighthouse. It’s a good short stop if you want a close look at the coast without taking on a long walk.
Roadside parking serves the stop. From there, the approach is roughly 100 m and descends stairs. That makes Moes Rock an awkward choice for anyone who needs a level path; it’s a quick visit, but not an easy-access viewpoint. Stony Creek Road is gravel on the approach.
Look across the bay for Cape St George Historic Lighthouse, then bring your eyes back to the white water breaking over the rock shelf. The rock makes a strong foreground in a photo. Stay on firm ground instead of stepping onto wet rock for a closer frame, since waves and spray can reach the exposed edge.
