The Rocks of the Freycinet Peninsular are mainly Granite with a high Quartz (Silicon) content with few of the minerals that discolour the sand. Over aeons the erosion of the local granite has supplied a large amount of pure silica-rich sand. Combine this with clear sediment-free water and these stunning beachscapes result.
