Great camping and fishing. Views from Rame Head track are superb. Lots of wildlife including Bandicoots and Monitors
A wonderful wild coastline where the river/lakes meet the wild ocean; clean , well-defined paths allow easy walks through teetree forests from which one can glimpse the forces of nature.
Thurra River is amazing!! Inlet, river, lighthouse & the beach. Plenty of wildlife...Just watch out for the River Snakes cruising down the river!
To reach the camping ground close to the lighthouse, you need to drive on dirt road for almost 50 mins, and the access to the lighthouse via car is closed. A beautiful walking trail to the lighthouse, 2.2 km to the lighthouse takes 55 minutes. The sand dunes and the sunset looks awesome.
Pristine nature, easy access, quiet not many people about. Bush and lake.
