Sandy Beach Reserve

Sandy Beach is a shining light along the Murrumbidgee River. The character of majestic red gums filled with parrots, shading well-manicured grass allow the ideal environment for a picnic by the river or for an extended stay. Enhancing its natural ambiance, Sandy offers modern toilet facilities, a concrete boat ramp, tables with shades, and rubbish removal facilities making this riverside reserve a popular stopover for Australia's nomadic retirees. Rare aquatic species such as the secretive platypus and the endangered trout cod are common at Sandy, whilst the mighty Murray Cod and golden Perch rule the waters under the fallen red gums. Imagine the rolling hills, the river snaking westward, and a cold drink by the cool waters of the Murrumbidgee.
