Join our Tomaree Bush and Beach workshop:
Native Plant or Weed look-a-likes!

Are you just a little curious about those plants you see in your bush and beach wanders? What's good and what's out of place?
The Friends of Tomaree National Park invite you to join us to learn about:
• Tomaree’s coastal dune, headland, forest and wet gully ecology
