There are many attractions near Jibbon Beach. Royal National Park is the second-oldest national park in the world, established in 1879. It covers 151 square kilometers and preserves fragile ecosystems, including coastal cliffs, beaches, littoral rainforest, deep river valleys, waterfalls, heathlands, rocky cliffs, hiking trails, ancient Aboriginal sites, and abundant wildlife, that offer unique insight into the local biodiversity. Wedding Cake Rock Trail is a five-kilometer-long hiking trail that meanders through a steep and rocky track along coastal heathland that leads to a unique but fragile geological formation that has a striking resemblance to a slice of layered wedding cake due to its flat, white, and layered appearance. It is important to note that erosion and natural processes have made the rock unstable, so we recommend visitors avoid going too close to the edge. Also, barriers and warning signs have been erected around the area to ensure the safety of visitors.
