Red Rock Retaining Wall Wooli-Minnie Water

For the Kids

Not the best off the ocean side of the breakwall. Both the Minnie Water and Wooli beaches have patrolled areas in the Summer. The river in town is a perfect spot to picnic and supervise kids. The rock platforms at Rocky Point are great for examining the marine life in the tidal pools and rock crevices. What is it?

Wooli and Minnie Water are small seaside villages surrounded by national parks. Wooli is located on a narrow peninsula with the pristine Wooli Wooli River on one side and the Pacific Ocean on the other.

Bream and Flathead. Wooli is popular for Black Fish on the river side of the Breakwall. Fish the beaches for Bream and Whiting and other ocean fish off the breakwalls.

Where is it? Turn east of the Pacific Hwy at Tynedale or Six Mile Lane 16 km south of Grafton. What’s there?

Camping, holiday accommodation, Wooli Bowling Club. Wooli Wooli River has boat ramps. What fish should I target? What bait should I use?

Prawns, mullet, Pilchard (weed for the Blackfish) What lures are best?

Surface and deep diving lures and Soft plastics. Metal slugs off the ocean side of the Wooli breakwall for Tailor, big Salmon and pelagics in the warmer months. Best time to fish?

All year round fishing. Launch a tinnie from the beach at Minnie water, or from the ramps along the river at Wooli. Summer months will see bigger fish from the wall. Off shore will see big snapper, kingfish, tuna, and cobia to name a few. What dream fish might I catch?

Large Snapper, Kingfish and Tuna offshore, decent sized flathead in the river.

GRAFTON

the heart of the Clarence

One of Australia’s most beautiful provincial cities, Grafton is renowned for its Jacaranda trees, graceful old buildings, sporting and cultural facilities and its location on the banks of the mighty Clarence River.

As the commercial hub of the Clarence Valley, Grafton has excellent accommodation, great shopping, award winning restaurants and a vibrant artistic community.

One of Australia’s most majestic waterways, the Clarence River is a dominant feature in Grafton’s landscape and lifestyle. Visitors travel from all over the world to compete in dragon boat, sail, and power boat racing, the Head of the River rowing regatta in December and one of Australia’s premier water skiing events, the famous Bridge to Bridge Ski Race, in October.

You can explore the River at a more sedate pace in a hire canoe or enjoy a bird’s eye view as you cross the famous ‘Bendy Bridge’, an engineering marvel built in 1932.

Spring’s Jacaranda Festival celebrates the city’s annual blossoming and the July Racing Carnival attracts the cream of Australia’s racing fraternity. The feature race of the carnival, the famous Grafton Cup, is the richest horse race in rural Australia.

At any time of the year, the museums, heritage trails, restaurants and galleries make Grafton an ideal holiday destination.
