👍👍 $12 per person per night in 2017. EFTPOS available in office hours. It took one hour and half from Canberra city. You have to get through unsealed road. But it is worth. Great place for families with children. It was quiet. The facilities were great. Drink water, hot shower, clean toilets, electroni...

If you like whale watching or bird watching it's absolutely perfect. In summer there is a little of reptiles, lizards an...

Boora Point

👍👍 Tenoutta ten didn't fall into ocean, easy to get to and looks cool. Extra points for being dog friendly (it's not pet friendly, only dog costume friendly) Parking is easy and it's about a 10-15 minute walk makes for some great shoots. Could be the location used from Mr Inbetween!
