Located in the sleepy coastal village of Red Rock in Gumbayngirr Country, The Blue Swimmer is an original 1940’s fibro beach shack with sweeping views across the water and the pristine Yuraygir National Park.

Nestled between the mouth of the Corindi Creek and the Sea, Red Rock lies completely surrounded by the untamed wilderness of the Yuraygir, one of the most biodiverse regions in Australia.

With fishing, surfing, paddling and magnificent coastal walks right on your doorstep, The Blue Swimmer provides the perfect base to explore the natural wonders of the area.

For intrepid hikers, the shack is located at the end point of the Yuraygir Coastal Trail, a spectacular 65km hike that passes from Angourie to Red Rock through age-old coastal landforms, littoral rainforest, eucalypt forest, woodland and wetlands. It also marks the beginning of the Solitary Islands Coastal Walk, which continues South along another 60km of stunning coastline to the town of Sawtell.

For boating enthusiasts, Red Rock is the perfect launch pad to explore the wild upper reaches of the Corindi Creek or venture further offshore to explore the wonders of the Solitary Islands Marine Park.

Additional Information

The Space

Inside the shack, relax and unwind between the frangipanis with spectacular views of the estuary from the fully equipped kitchen and breakfast bar. Sit back in our comfortable living area and watch the Spoonbills and the Oyster Catchers while away the afternoon on the sandbank out the front.

Both bedrooms are furnished with a touch of luxury including a generous king size bed, a queen with king single bunk, comfy new mattresses and quality linen.

The Blue Swimmer is the perfect escape for families. Kids can kick a ball around our spacious backyard, cast a line in the creek out the front, or roam freely at the park and playground directly in view from the shack. On a rainy day, snuggle up inside with plenty of books, toys and boardgames provided to keep everyone occupied.

The garage is packed with bodyboards, stand-up paddle boards, noodles and a Cool Cabana so you can get outside and enjoy the beach. Grab a noodle and walk less than 100m to jump in the creek and float down pristine turquoise waters to Little Beach, or take the paddle-boards for a spin around the island.

We will be making some exciting improvements to our little shack over the next few months so make sure you watch this space. @blue_swimmer_shack

The Surrounds

Despite its laid-back, peaceful vibe, this sleepy village offers a few fantastic options for convenient eats and supplies.
A few steps down the road, the Red Rock store slings coffee, takeaway and the world’s best hot chips.
For something a little more upbeat, take a short walk to the Red Rock Bowls Club for an afternoon game of barefoot bowls, beers, or the most delicious Middle Eastern dining at Afrin Restaurant.
Don’t forget to keep an ear out for ‘the prawn man’ who regularly drives around town offering locally caught prawns and fresh seafood. Or better yet, head out onto the creek and catch a flatty for dinner yourself.

I'm a Mum from Currumbin with 2 small boys and a love of all things outdoors, especially surfing and hiking. My husband suffers from a severe fishing fever. We bought our little beach shack at Red Rock to make the most of the surfing, fishing, pristine wilderness and epic hikes that the Yuraygir National park and surrounding areas have to offer.
