Shore Thing has everything an old-fashioned family holiday needs: most of which are easily accessible by foot.
Zac's Place for fish and chips is a few minutes stroll away but it's hard to beat BBQing on the deck with parakeets and kookaburras dropping in, pelicans gliding onto the lagoon and the sun setting below the horizon.
