Mowarry campground is ideal for adventurous campers looking for a remote bush camping experience. It's a walk-in campsite tucked away from crowds near Mowarry Point in Beowa National Park.  

After a 600m walk from your vehicle, set up camp among the bracelet honey myrtle trees. From your campsite, it’s a short 100m downhill walk to beautiful and secluded Mowarry Beach. Sheltered by headlands, this beach is great for snorkelling, swimming and fishing when the water is calm. 

Looking for more pristine beaches? Walk for about one hour north and you’ll find the rocky shores of Leather Jacket Bay. You might be lucky enough to spot whales and dolphins frolicking in the distance.

This campground sits along the multi-day Light to Light walk so you can sample a smaller walk section on your camping trip. Enjoy a short stroll in either direction to enjoy the impressive rock formations and rugged coastal scenery. If you’ve got more time and energy, lace up your boots and walk part of the track south to Saltwater Creek and back. This will take you around 4 hours return.
