One of the best camping areas in Tassie, multiple options to choose from. Beach nearby, excellent bushwalks, good toilets, barbecue and shower facilities. Highly recommended - you must have a valid National Parks Pass. This is one of a handful of camping spots in Tassie where you can camp with horses!
