Beach Launch at Horrocks
The beach sand is reasonable, depends on the size and weight of your boat, vehicle tyre pressure and how quickly you get the boat back onto the trailer before the waves wash the sand from under the tyres on trailer and back of vehicle. Bog mats would be helpfull.

Looks like there's a good reef system not far out to protect the beach a little.

Horrocks is preferred so I can disappear for a few days and try places not many people get too.
The in close reef is main reason as well.
