Fourmile
|
|
|
| In the days before the coastal road linked Bicheno and Scamander, Fourmile Creek as it was known was almost at the end of the road. A secluded, holiday camping destination with a creek full of bream, and crayfish abundantly crawling in the rock pools. |
|
|
|
|
| Fourmile has now become a home to about 50 residents and the campers have gone, the crayfish and the bream are not so abundant but are still being caught. It is a great destination for surfing and fishing or just soaking in the peaceful coastal scenery. |

|
|
|
| Fourmile is about 15 kilometres along the coastal highway after turning off at the base of the St.Marys pass. The turnoff is 10 kilometres from Scamander. Pack a barbeque or picnic lunch there is a park for the kids and a safe swimming in the lagoon. Boats can be launched from the rivermouth but seek local knowledge because this can be dangerous. |

| Surf Fishing from the 4 kilometre beach for the local Australian Salmon is a major pastime of visitors to the area. Good catches of these 2 – 3kilo fighters are common from the beach. |
