It is a thing!! There is so much to do on the Surf Coast, nobody could possibly get Bored. There is golf, hiking, beaches, lighthouse, shopping, and numerous cafés & restaurants. Fore more details on Attractions of the area, go here.

They are offering all geocachers who use the code word “Geocache” when making their booking the following.
- 10% discount,
- Free Late checkout until 11am in Cabins (can stay in the park) or 6pm checkout for sites,
