Thousands of hectares of unspoilt National Park provides the perfect environment for some of Australia's most diverse and abundant wildlife to flourish. Visitors to the area may see everything from sea eagles, pelicans and egrets to wallabies, kangaroos, bandicoots, goannas and even the occasional koala. The area also hosts one of Australia's largest and most interesting fresh-water coastal lake systems as well as protected waterways, wetlands and more than 40 kilometres of spectacular unbroken beaches.

GOURMET TRAVELERS
The Great Lakes is developing a reputation for great produce, it's super fresh and we are more than happy to help you find the best local produce for your plate.
Try some local oysters, Myall prawns, local lobster, sea mullet, flathead and black fish at the "old school" Tea Gardens Fish Co-Op.
Pick up some country specialties from the local rural town of Bulahdelah - pies at the local pub, Bulahdelah "high top" at the bakery, home smoked bacon, gourmet sausages and local grass-fed beef at the Barry Brothers butcher - take a picnic basket full of fresh produce to a secluded beach on the lake's edge.
Fresh produce is seasonal, so we suggest asking what's on offer when you're booking. We've got some great tips, like a 5 minute detour to Karuah on your way to Bombah will get you some fresh oysters direct from the farm.
Buy some artisan cheese to enhance you freshly picked organic produce from Burraduc Buffalo Farm.
