Camping Broughton Island - How to get there?

Houseboats and most of the charter boats in the Myal lakes system would not be allowed out there. Here is what the National Parks site says:


Getting there:

Little Poverty Beach, Broughton Island, is part of Myall Lakes National Park. Access is by vessel only. If travelling by private vessel, you'll need to register your movements with Marine Rescue Port Stephens on marine radio prior to travel, or you can organise transport with a tour operator. Please be advised that tour operator schedules and prices vary, so it’s recommended that you contact the tour operator before booking your campsite to ensure that ferry times and costs suit your requirements.

Guided tours and ferry services run to the island by the following tour operators:

Moonshadow Cruises (guided tours only)
Lets Go Adventures (pre-arranged transfer services only)
Tamboi Queen Cruises (guided tours and pre-arranged transfer services)

If you contact me thru member msg I can give you a contact that often takes groups he use to have a hut out there, both dive shops at tee gardens & port Stephens also use to do drop offs you could try them as we'll.
