Finding the turnaround

Four things to look for

The turn is marked with a red sign and orange cones. Cones blow over and signs get moved, so learn the landmarks as a backup — they do not move.

  1. Lifeguard tower on your left, on the promenade side.
  2. The centre of the zoo fence on your right, across the road, lining up with you.
  3. A “Road Humps 200 m” sign. This is your warning that the turn is coming.
  4. The first tree immediately after that sign. That tree is the exact turnaround point.
