Two days here is still a real, satisfying trip on its own, not a rushed preview, covering Shoal Bay East, Meads Bay and Rendezvous Bay plus a proper beach-bar meal. What actually keeps the cost down is picking the cheaper option at every fork: the public ferry over a private charter, a beach-bar plate over the fine-dining tier, and free beach access everywhere you go.
