• A stone’s throw from the foreshore is Sam’s Island, a hidden oasis and long time home to Serbian Sam Ostojich who fell in love with the spot and claimed it for his castle after moving to the Pilbara in the 60s.
  
  
• There’s a string of 42 pristine islands to choose and explore, not only are they completely unspoiled but they’re all but deserted so you could just about have one to yourself for the entire day.
