Parking is extremely limited this season due to recent weather events, including record rainfall, which have altered the landscape and made the lower car park temporarily inaccessible. We encourage you to take some time to plan your trip.
Digital signage
We're trialling digital and advanced warning signage to guide visitors to available parking and direct traffic safely.
Parking changes
Parking is not permitted on the eastern side of James Paterson Street, Anna Bay, between 6am to 6pm during the holiday period.
