Scamander Tourist Park (CP)

DISCLAIMER: All prices displayed were correct at the time of publishing.  Please contact any campground/caravan park before booking to confirm the pricing displayed in FRCs listings.

Scamander Tourist Park is located on the beautiful north east coast of Tasmania. Whether it is a short stroll along a secluded beach, or any water activities that you may fancy, like swimming, fishing, or boating, it will be available close to this beautiful park.

Tasmania is almost 40% National Parks, Conservation areas and the like, so if you’d prefer a walk through some of the pristine beauty of the local natural flora, enjoying some magnificent views as you go, you are never far away from an opportunity.

Take a short trip to the nearby town of St. Marys, with its spectacular mountain scenery, close-by forest walks and some beautiful old architecture. World famous Freycinet Bay National Park and the Bay of Fires are a beautiful day trip option while staying at the park.

Many of the grassy sites at the park have great ocean views, and while some are more sheltered and shady, others are more open and make it a bit easier for the solar panels to be positioned more effectively. There are unpowered sites ideal for the campers, powered sites for the caravans and motor homes etc., and right up to budget and deluxe 1 and 2 bedroom cabins available, so there is plenty of choice to cater for your needs.

A pub, shops and a sporting complex are all within walking distance.

The park has all the amenities you’d expect to make your stay comfortable – bbq’s, laundry, camp kitchen etc. A dump point is also available.

While the park itself is pet friendly, please check before taking your dogs etc to any National Parks and the like, as exclusions may apply.

The History of Scamander

The town wasn’t always called Scamander, its historical name had an unusual link to an English town. This linked back to 1825 when the surveyor John Helder Wedge named it after the town Yarmouth and River Scamander as is known today was called River Borthwick. Tasmanian Governor, Sir John Franklin then changed it to Scamander after the Greek mythical god – the river god, because of his love for classical Greek culture. 

Even more interesting is Scamander’s infamous history of multiple failing bridges. The Scamander’s popular town bridge.

The first bridge built was made with flimsy pylons no thicker than the average telegraph post, which eventually collapsed under the weight of a herd of cows. It was then later reconstructed by ironbark and bluegum but sadly heavy floods washed it away.

The third attempt built by Grubb Bros. was made from ironbark for £4,500. It lasted for 22 years before another flood caused repeated pressures of crashing trees forcing the bridge to collapse.

The cycle of failed timber bridges continued until a new truss bridge was constructed in 1936 but was unfortunately demolished recently but its memories will certainly live on in the hearts of many locals and holidaymakers alike. 

Things To Do At Scamander

Scamander beach.

 Scamander beach makes for a calm, peaceful, and tranquil spot to relax & unwind. Take a walk along the long white sandy beach and immerse yourself in the magnificent views. You may be lucky and spot dolphins and whales. There are many activities to enjoy and get excited about like swimming or trying surfing at one of the most well-known surfing spots which Tasmanians proudly call their surf coast. For the quieter surfing spots head down to the coast between Scamander and Bicheno ; this is the stretch of coast known as the surf coast.

Equally popular, particularly with Anglers is one of Tasmania’s great bream locations, Scamander’s River, located at the mouth of Scamander’s beach. The most common fish caught here is the southern black bream, Australian salmon, and surf bream. If you’re feeling more adventurous, try camping at the Scamander Forest Reserve situated just inland from Scamander’s beach, you can catch & cook fish on many barbeque pits offered at the camping facilities.
