Murramarang South Coast Walk — Attraction in Pretty Beach

Beautiful hike with a great mix of beach, coastal and forest environs to enjoy and get enveloped in. Rated moderate because of occasional signage/navigation difficulty, beach-sand walking at high tide, and absence of any available drinking water from South Durras to Maloney's Beach.

Parking at Maloney's Beach is free, but Pretty Beach parking is in the National Park and is $8/day but you can't buy multi-day parking. If you're doing a multi-day walk your only option is to get an annual pass to NSWNP for $22 - get it at the office at the park. And while the beaches are south-coast-cold, they're mighty refreshing!

Beautiful spotted gums, lots of fruiting macrozamias and the banksias were just starting to flower. A range of animals were around, surprising giving the storm that...

Great coastal walk! That takes you along the beach and up into bush. Started at Pretty Beach (nice campground with facilities, rain water tanks avail but recommend treating). If doing overnight - Keep in mind smaller tent only sites don’t have water but can fill up at drive in camp sites half way (depot beach)....
