A true-blue Australian original.
Perfectly perched between the lake and the sea, The Black Dolphin blends mid-century charm with that easy coastal way of living.
Stay your way in thoughtfully restored motel rooms that nod to our iconic history, or just across the road in the holiday park, with villas, cabins, and caravan sites made for slowing down and settling in.
We’re relaxed, a little refined, and just the right amount of nostalgic, the kind of place that feels as good as a holiday should.
