Locals like to keep the Yuraygir Coastal Walk a closely guarded secret, and it’s no wonder once you discover its spectacular beaches, picturesque lagoons and the relaxed charm and character of its coastal villages.
The Yuraygir Coastal Walk begins at Iluka and Yamba, two settlements that hug either side of the majestic Clarence River. The walk throws a variety of experiences at you including coastal hiking, littoral rainforests, paperbark swamps, colourful heathlands, crystal clear creeks and lagoons and spectacular rock platforms. Graceful pandanus trees line the picture-perfect beaches on the longest stretch of protected coastline in New South Wales.
This coastline is punctuated with splendid rivers making access difficult, but we have arranged for boats to take you safely across. They have also allowed time each day to take a swim or just hang out on your own private stretch of untouched beach. As an added bonus, the walk links the picturesque villages of Yamba, Angourie, Brooms Head, Sandon River, Minnie Water, Wooli and Red Rock giving it a real inn-to-inn feel. This is a track less walked, and it’s likely that you will have it to yourself.
