Cactus Canyon is a steep-sided canyon that reaches the coast 500 m south of Sellicks beach. The canyon and neighbouring creeks have delivered rocks to the shore that have been reworked by the waves to form a high tide shingle beach, overlain by a veneer of sand. The beach (214) extends south of the canyon for 1 km to where it merges with the boulders of beach 213. North of the canyon houses line the top of the 60 m high bluffs, with the best access being on foot or vehicle from Sellicks Beach.
