Some things are classic for a reason, and holidays by the beach are no exception. At NRMA Port Macquarie Breakwall Holiday Park, you get the sense the good old days are now.
All the ingredients for family memories are right here. Port Macquarie accommodation or a campsite just metres from the sand. A resort-style pool for that pruney-finger kind of fun. A place where the kids can roam free with new pals. A friendly, welcoming atmosphere where the good times flow as easily as the tide slipping out past the breakwall.
With facilities and activities for rollicking family fun, you may never want to leave our Port Macqaurie holiday park. But then you remember the waves, the bush and the koalas, and the world outside looks bright indeed.
NRMA Port Macquarie Breakwall Holiday Park is located in the heart of Port Macquarie on the Mid North Coast of NSW, a four-and-a-half-hour drive from Sydney. Bordering the beach and the break wall at the mouth of the Hastings River, holiday parks don’t come much more ideally situated than this. The shops, cafes and restaurants of Port Macquarie are within walking distance.

Unforgettable Nymboida Getaway!
Our stay at Nymboida was incredible! Merryl was an amazing host, and the pristine river made for the perfect escape. The highlight? Spotting a platypus and two kingfishers—pure magic! The kids felt so safe, and the canoe adventure was unforgettable. Can’t wait to go back—this time, just with the boys! 😜 Highly recommend!
