A friendly reminder that entry to the day use area of our private park is now $10.00 per vehicle.

During office hours (8am - 5pm) we ask that you please park in the designated car parking at the front of the office (not across the boat and check-in bay) and pop into the Office + Kiosk to pay your entry fee before entering the park.

If you're a boaty and wanting to access the boat ramp outside of hours, remember to bring along $10.00 in gold coins so that you can use the outside of office hours coin operated boom gate.
