Hi All
Anybody been camping at either Apex or
Finley beach on the
Murray River at Tocumwal ?
We are traveling through the area and are looking for a place to relax, do a bit of fishing, and rest before we head off again.
Cheers
Dave T

Hi Dave,
Head in a bit further to
Pump Bend which is around past the air strip at Timeout Resort/Caravan Park. Big long sandy bank with a few shady trees. Still accessed from the same turnoff out near Toc.

Hi David,
Check with the local rangers....further down the river there is still a lot of water around with some spots either under water or very sloshy. The biggest concern is the Mozzie
population. I know that at Barmah Forest there is a High Incident warning due to the mossies. Not trying to alarm you but when professionals working in that area become sick due to the mozzies then there is reason for concern after all that little insect kills more people in the world than any other creature. Safe travels.

We stayed at
Apex beach week before
Easter with van, nice pleasant quiet spot. Mozzies were no problem. Hardly noticed them. Kids swam nearly every day. Plenty of beach & grassy areas. Track in was fine. Enjoy! Bill & Ange
