Inside a cave on one of Australia's 'best secrets' - my home beach.  However, as often happens, word is out and it’s not such a secret anymore, although it’s still relatively unknown and very beautiful.

In the 1850s, a great number of Aboriginal people were murdered in Ballina, NSW. Some managed to flee north to this beach and its surrounds where they hid in caves, were found and saw the last light of day. I hadn’t heard of this heinous story when I visited the place just the other day, nor had my friend who was with me.

It was high tide and spying the cave in the corner, I scaled some rocks, carrying my iPhone, while my friend swam towards it with his GoPro. It’s a small, beautiful place and we didn’t feel any darkness apart from the waning light. Inside the rocks glistened with seawater in the sheltered gloom, while next door a smaller cave frothed and spat across the handsome coastline.

If you do manage to find this place, enter when the tide is low.
