Fifteen silver-metal fish are mounted in a line half-way up an undulating brick wall (known as 'crinkle crankle'). The Heritage Trail is on Whapload Road opposite the Maritime Museum; there are information posts about the beach companies, posts for drying fishermen's nets and an east and west cardinal buoy.
