Beach Retreat Tourist Park

Top choice in Tasmania


This must be one of the prettiest and friendliest caravan parks in Australia. Located right by the beach, its grounds are meticulously manicured and pleasingly green. There are neat cabins, camp sites, an excellent fully equipped camp kitchen, a laundry and good amenities blocks. It's so good, we'll even forgive the lack of wi-fi.
