If you love fishing, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, or boating, Violet Hill Campground and Picnic Area is the perfect spot to set up base and enjoy the great outdoors.
This scenic lakeside retreat comes with a boat ramp, a floating jetty, and free public moorings, making it a boater’s paradise. The single-lane concrete ramp is low enough to easily launch small motorised boats, PWCs, canoes, and kayaks, so whether you're paddling, cruising, or fishing, you’re all set.
For water lovers, the Violet Hill Passage is a top spot for kayaking, swimming, and fishing, while boaters and kayakers can venture out to Boolambayte Lake for more scenic exploration. Anglers looking for their next big catch can head over to Myall Lake, which is known for great fishing opportunities. Just a heads-up: the wind can funnel through the channel, so on a windy southerly day, conditions might be a bit challenging.
There’s plenty of space for cars and trailers near the boat ramp, so launching and packing up is a breeze.
The campground and picnic area on Violet Hill Road offers camping options for tents, caravans, and motorhomes, so you can find a setup that fits your style. Facilities include picnic tables, BBQs, and toilets, making it a comfortable spot for a weekend escape. Keep in mind that there’s an entry fee for camping, so be sure to plan ahead.
