The Bluff is a popular holiday destination, with extensive accommodation and plentiful seaside recreation. The area is known for its abundant sea life, including dolphins, and in the winter months, whales. There are two main beaches: Brighton Beach and Anstey's, while a smaller, lesser-known beach to the north is Garvie's.

There is golf course and a wetland area with a large population of various bird species. The area enjoys a sub-tropical climate so expect mostly warm, humid weather even amid sudden downpours, although flooding and unexpected cold weather is not unusual. Always check with your Travel Agent.

The warm Indian Ocean makes swimming possible all year round.
