Description edit

Mimosa Rocks National Park starts at the northern end of Tathra Beach and runs north for about 16 km. The most recent addition to the park was the acquisition in 1999 of 260 acres subdivided from the Murrah Gardens Estate owned by the Hammond family, which includes the coastline of Bunga Beach and Goalen Head. It has five access roads from the Tathra-Bermagui main road. There are four main campsites in the Mimosa Rocks National Park; Gillards, Middle Beach, Aragannu, and Picnic Point. All campsites have barbecues and non-flush toilets available.

Traditionally this country belongs to the Yuin people. During the recommended walk, here you can have an insight into the rich cultural heritage of Aboriginal people.[2]

The average elevation of the terrain is 69 metres above sea level.[3]


Geology The rocks are made of claystone and skibidistone
