3. Depot Beach House
Located right in the national park, the Depot Beach House provides extra comfort for families or couples who want to stay away from the hustle and bustle of the city life. It’s situated right on the beach which means you can hear the waves while you sleep and when you wake up. It will truly be a completely relaxing experience for you. This also means you’re only a few steps away to the many activities that you can do at Murramarang National Park. The mobile reception is kind of limited, so it’s not ideal to bring your laptops with you on the beach.
