A large coastal park on the mid north coast of New South Wales with one of the state's largest coastal lake systems, 40 km of beaches, and rainforest and dunes in between. It's great for kayaking, sailing, swimming and fishing on the calm lakes, and for surfing and long walks on the ocean beaches.


Highlights include the Mungo Brush campground on the lake, the Grandis (the tallest tree in New South Wales), Seal Rocks with its lighthouse and whale watching, and Broughton Island. The Bombah Point ferry crosses the lakes. Nearby Forster and Tuncurry are bigger towns with plenty of accommodation.
