The Kennedy Track is one of the longer walks in the Mission Beach area, taking about 4 hours to complete the 8 kilometre return journey. However, most people choose to do shorter sections of the walk such as the 5 kilometre return walk to Tam O'Shanter Point.

The first part of the walk is through shady pandanus and eucalypt forest. After a little more than a kilometre there is a set of steps down to the long curved beach of Lugger Bay.

There is a short climb up Tam O'Shanter Point to a lookout with superb ocean views. If you choose to keep walking, the track winds its way around the rocky point to Kennedy Bay.
