Things to Do in North Haven

There’s something timeless about North Haven — a place where the river meets the sea and every day moves at its own calm pace. Whether you’re chasing adventure or simply a chance to unwind, you’ll find plenty to fill your days.

Start with a walk along the North Haven Breakwall, a scenic stroll where dolphins often play in the waves. The gentle trail is perfect for families or morning joggers. Afterwards, head to North Haven Beach for a swim or surf, or hire a kayak from Dunbogan Boatshed and paddle the peaceful Camden Haven River.

For stunning views, drive up to Dooragan National Park (North Brother Mountain). From the summit lookout, you’ll see a breathtaking panorama of coastline, lakes, and hinterland — one of the region’s best-kept secrets.

If you’re a fan of local markets, the Laurieton Riverwalk Markets offer handmade crafts, produce, and food stalls right by the water. Don’t forget to stop for lunch at Oasis by the River on your way back — the perfect way to end a day of exploring.

Cross the bridge to Kattang Nature Reserve and walk to Perpendicular Point, a dramatic clifftop lookout just minutes from town. The short trail offers sweeping ocean views and, in whale season, you might spot migrating humpbacks breaching offshore.

A little further south, Diamond Head in Crowdy Bay National Park promises even bigger scenery. Kangaroos graze near the dunes, and the coastal walk delivers panoramic views that stretch back toward North Haven — a perfect half-day adventure from the park.

After a day of exploring, come home to comfort at North Haven Holiday Park — your peaceful riverside base between the mountains and the sea.
