We have the beach directly in front of the cabin, so any beach activity you can think of is right at your fingertips.
Wildlife abounds!!! Particulary birdlife: Penguins walk past the cabin on the way home to their nests. Sea eagles fish off the rocks and nest nearby. Shearwaters return here every year (the only time they ever come on land) to breed during September to August. Grass parrots, wrens, wattlebirds and other honeyeaters are common. Whales and their calves often come into the bay to rest up on their migation either north or south. Seals and dolphins also follow the natural curve of the beach on their fishing expeditions. We have a large population of Paddymelons and Bennett's wallabies, wombats and bandicoots...
We are half way between Bay of Fires and Freycinet Pennisula and Wineglass Bay.
We are also halfway between Launceston and Hobart in terms of travelling time, being approximately 2 hours from both.
