About a 2.5hr drive from here. Get in very early if you’d like a chance to drive your own car into the national park. Otherwise shuttle busses will take you in - this includes in your parks pass, that you’ll need to purchase. Dove lake walk is stunning.

Beautiful spot to walk, and take in the view - from Rocky Cape end or Sisters Beach end, or from one end to the other. Swim at one of the amazing little swimming spots, if the weather is warm.

Beautiful spot for a swim, especially for bigger kids. The tidal river provides a fun (but fairly strong) current to float along in. Not suitable for little children unless supervised within arms length. No toilets.
