A popular attraction at Fingal Head is the Fingal Lighthouse and a long walk along the lovely beach can give one a chance to really 'chill out'. A swim on the way is a nice way to cool down on a hot day. The beach and lighthouse can be reached through remnant coast rainforest which is being regenerated by the nationally recognised and award winning efforts of local enthusiasts.

The area was name after Fingal in Ireland because the basalt headland was thought to be similar to the Giants Causeway there.
