MINNIE WATER & WOOLI

The coastal village of Wooli is located on a peninsula with the Wooli River on one side, and the Solitary Islands Marine Reserve on the other. It's surrounded on land by the Yuraygir National park and hidden amongst its natural surrounds.  We recommend Acacia Holiday Flats  at Minnie Water as a perfect base for a great holiday. 

The Wooli River, renowned for its purity and clarity, flows through Yuraygir. Wooli Oyster Supply has a full range of fresh seafood including the locally grown Sydney Rock Oyster.

Off the coast warm tropical currents from the north merge with the colder southern currents, forming the Solitary Islands Marine Reserve where an amazing diversity of marine life is studied by researchers, conservationists and divers.

Families head for the main beach while fishermen and surfers seek their perfect spot in the kilometres of secluded sand and headlands of the National Park.

Wooli has heaps of water sport - deep sea fishing, scuba diving, fishing, whale and dolphin watching, social and river cruises - however it's most unusual sporting event is held on land each June Long Weekend - THE ANNUAL GOANNA PULLING CHAMPIONSHIPS.

Just a short drive from Wooli, and surrounded completely by Yuraygir National Park, lies the small coastal village of Minnie Water. Excellent walking tracks and camping, secluded beaches and abundant wildlife attract visitors year after year.

There are holiday units and a modern shady caravan park for peace seekers.

ULMARRA

The village of Ulmarra is a fine example of a 19th century river port. The shops are brimming with antiques, collectables, old linen and lace, and bric-a-brac of a bygone age.

The colonial style and iron lace-work of the Commercial Hotel attracts considerable interest as it nestles on the banks of the Clarence River.

From the wharf you can imagine the steamers on their way south, laden with precious cargo. The vehicular ferry from Ulmarra to Southgate is another blast from the past - not many of these still operating!

A visit to Ulmarra will be long remembered as a highlight of your stay in the Clarence Valley
