Diversity, history, gateway and 25 sandy beaches

Tocumwal, located 257kms from Melbourne on the New South Wales border, is the first stop on one of Australia's major inland routes, the Newell Highway. The history of tourism in the region goes back over 100 years, with visitors attracted to the magnificent sandy beaches (with 24 located within 5 minutes East and West of Tocumwal), all surrounded by some of the most impressive Redgum forests on the Murray.

The Murray River and the tradition of free bush camping and water based activities continues to attract generation after generation returning to enjoy the water skiing, canoeing, swimming, camping, caravanning, bush walking and the vast array of native wildlife including over 150 different bird species. Wildlife abounds and it is not unusual to see kangaroos and koalas, wedge tails and wallabies in their natural habitat.

Tocumwal and district offers some of the best quality accommodation on the Murray, with over 14 motels or self contained units and five caravan parks with beautifully landscaped surrounds, pools, spas, tennis or Redgum forest in the Tocumwal area alone. Prices are very competitive and service is of the highest standard, and offer something for every budget.
