Fall in love with Tathra
Tathra is just a small coastal village but it’s so easy to fall in love with it. The contradiction of the landscape with rural scenery and pristine beaches, the historic Tathra Wharf, the friendly locals, the big range of activities and its beautiful accommodations, are just some of the reasons.
