Travel North to Sydney

'The Prom', as it is fondly called, is at the southern most point of mainland Australia. Renowned for its spectacular scenery, the 120,000 acre national park features magnificent and secluded beaches, cool fern gullies, great views, spectacular rock formations and an abundance of wildlife. The drive from the entrance of the park at Yanakie to Tidal River settlement is scenic and is well-signposted, with car parks, beaches and bushland accessible via side roads. However, the best way to enjoy the spectacular scenery is on one of the many walking trails throughout the peninsula.
