Leave the mainland behind for a small, self-sufficient camp on Broughton Island in Myall Lakes National Park. The island’s seabird colony and ocean outlook make this a very different stay from a drive-in campground.
Spend your daylight hours walking, swimming or exploring the water around Esmeralda Cove. Bring your own water and supplies, and plan your boat transfer around changing sea conditions.

- Unpowered sites
- Marked sites
