Book Accommodation 

Scamander is a coastal town with wide sandy beaches, riverside retreats, nature reserves and fishing hot spots. Located between St Helens and St Marys on the banks of the Scamander River, this seaside spot is popular with locals and visiting leisure-seekers alike.

The town is well-serviced with shops, plenty of accommodation and a surf lifesaving club, yet still has the feel of a classic Tassie holiday shack village.

Scamander Beach is the main attraction, offering all kinds of outdoor fun, from swimming to surfing the local breaks. The river is popular with anglers and has many good fishing spots dotted along its banks.

A popular local attraction is Henderson Lagoon, a hidden gem with clear waters and seven kilometres of well-marked trails, hundreds of varieties of native flora and around 80 species of woodland and marshland birds.

Also popular is the Scamander Forest Reserve on the banks of the Scamander River. The reserve is a popular camping spot and base for fishing trips with barbecue facilities for cooking up the day's catch.

Scamander offers a wide range of places to stay including several small motels, Bed and Breakfasts and self-contained accommodation – as well as campsites
